Warehouse tasks in Funabashi for importers and overseas-owned stock
For stock that arrives from abroad and has to be made ready for the Japanese market, we take the sorting, labelling and repacking as one priced task.
When the instructions are in English and the site is in Funabashi
A common situation: the owner or buyer is abroad and writes in English, while the storeroom manager works in Japanese. Our supervisor can read both and brief the team in Japanese, and we report back in whichever language you prefer. You do not need to translate your own instructions or find a go-between, which removes a typical source of mistakes in imported stock handling.
Sorting imported cartons into something sellable
Imported deliveries often arrive mixed: several products in one carton, or one product spread across many. We sort by the code, name or sample you give us, group like items and set aside anything that does not match your list. We do not decide what the goods are; we follow your reference and report differences.
Labels and stickers applied exactly as supplied
Goods for the Japanese market commonly need extra labels. We apply the labels you provide, in the positions you specify, and match them against the item. The content of any label is your responsibility; we do not write, translate or alter label text. If a sticker looks inconsistent with the product, we stop on that item and message you. We do not offer licensed or regulated labelling tasks.
Repacking and kitting light items
Single items can be repacked into the retail boxes you supply, and light items can be kitted into sets according to your parts list: for example a product with its accessory and instruction sheet. We follow your sample unit. Heavy goods, anything fragile in a way that needs special handling and anything needing a licence are outside the scope.
How the contracted task works
You are buying a completed task. You describe the scope, the number of units, the date and the standard, and we confirm a fixed price by message. Our supervisor directs our own team, checks the output against your sample and answers for the result. You do not instruct our team members one by one, and we do not place anyone under your direction. This arrangement keeps responsibility clear.
Travel and access around Funabashi
Funabashi is outside the 23 wards, so we state any travel cost before you confirm. Tell us the entrance, the loading arrangement and whether the team needs to be registered at a gate. A photo of the work area helps. Chiba, including Noda, Kashiwa and Yachiyo, Saitama, Kanagawa, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Gunma and Tokyo’s 23 wards are all within our area.
Counting stock against a packing list
When a shipment arrives, someone has to count what is actually there against the packing list. We count by item and carton, record differences such as shortages, extras or damaged cartons, and photograph what we find. We report the differences. The conclusion, such as filing a claim, is yours.
What we do not do
We do not operate forklifts or heavy machinery, drive or transport goods, handle hazardous or temperature-controlled goods, take on food production or tasks that need a food-handling licence, or deal with regulated pharmaceuticals. Customs procedures and technical maintenance are not part of what we do. Night or heavy-manual shifts happen only when agreed. We tell you rather than guess.
Site rules and safety
Your facility’s safety rules come first. Our supervisor asks for them before the start and briefs the team on routes, stacking and areas to avoid. If there is anything we need to wear or sign at the gate, tell us in the first message.
Price, confirmation and re-doing
The fixed price covers the task, the batch or an agreed period and is confirmed by message before work starts. If something is not done to the agreed standard and you report it within 24 hours, we put it right at no extra cost. Photo or progress reports are sent where useful. The work is carried out with our operations partner Global Access Co., Ltd.
Requests at any hour
Overseas owners are in other time zones, so requests are accepted at any hour, and we reply within one hour. A message with photos of the stock and your sample is the quickest way to begin.
Visual inspection against your criteria
Imported goods sometimes arrive scratched, with a missing accessory or with a crushed inner box. If you give us a short list of what counts as acceptable, we inspect each unit by eye, sort it into accepted and set-aside groups and photograph the exceptions. We do not repair items or decide on returns to the supplier; we show you what we saw and you decide. This kind of check is easiest when you can share one example of an acceptable unit and one of a rejected unit.
Repeat shipments with the same specification
If the same product arrives again, the same task can be repeated for a fixed price without starting from nothing. We keep your sample photos, label placement notes and grouping rules from the first task, so the second shipment follows the same standard. For regular arrivals you can also agree a fixed period, with the scope restated in the confirmation message each time.
