About Us

Tim joined the publishing world in April 2003 when he started at Yohan - an importer of Japan of overseas books and magazines. In July 2005, he joined Amazon Japan as import book buying manager. After he left Amazon in November 2009, he set up his own agency and ever since has been representing overseas publishers firstly in Japan but now all over North East Asia. He is totally fluent in English and Japanese.

Kate Miao is based in Mainland China and is a native Mandarin speaker as well as speaking fluent English. Kate promotes our publishers in China and was the import book buyer for the Eslite store in Suzhou for two years before joining forces with Tim in October 2017.

We provide the fastest, highest quality service possible to both our publisher clients and our customers and are proud of the high level of trust they place in us.
