KUMATANI MASATO

Born in Kyoto Prefecture. Graduated from the Graduate School of Agriculture at Kyoto University. In graduate school, he studied plant genetic engineering and became immersed in the fascination of research. However, he began to desire involvement with final products that reach customers’ hands, rather than working in a world confined to the laboratory.

With this aspiration, he joined Ajinomoto AGF and engaged in product development for the “Blendy” brand. He experienced the entire process from product planning to market launch, touching the essence of business. However, his desire to create businesses more freely grew stronger, leading to his decision to become independent.

Starting an import business from zero business experience, after much trial and error, he secured exclusive contracts with two companies within six months. While continuing his own import business, he provides support to clients by leveraging his experience.

Combining different perspectives from “research,” “product development,” and “practical import business,” at LEAGUE, he supports clients in finding truly valuable products and developing strategies for success in the Japanese market. Through results-oriented consulting, he continues to expand the possibilities of import businesses.
