About Us

Built for Markets That Require More Than a Report.

Mika Sake Global Inc. is an export wholesaler and market-development company specialising in alcoholic beverages and related products across the Global South.

We do not stop at research or introductions.

We examine whether a product can be imported, positioned, distributed, understood and sold in the target market. We then help build the regulatory, educational and commercial environment required for sustainable growth.

Our strength lies in connecting Japanese clients with practical local execution in India and Africa.
