How Japanese Translation Services Can Benefit Your Expansion

Since the 20th Century, Japan’s economy has grown remarkably as well as their reputation for innovation and technological advancement. From pharmaceuticals and biotechnology to robotics and cybersecurity, Japan has a top notch, constantly-evolving manufacturing industry that you are unlikely to find anywhere else around the world.

For organisations looking to gain a foothold in the Japanese market, our professional Japanese translation services are vital. After all, companies in Japan have a very specific way of doing business and it’s important to get it right. Otherwise, you risk completely losing out on your venture.

A good example of how poor translation has affected business opportunities, is the stationery manufacturer, 3M. When they introduced their scotch tape in Japan, it had the slogan: “It sticks like crazy!” However, the Japanese interpretation of this slogan was “it sticks foolishly,” which didn’t paint the brand in the best light.

By using a professional translator, you will be able to convey both the meaning of the Japanese language as well as keeping in mind cultural and historical traditions. For example, it is recommended you avoid putting white flowers or groups of four on your marketing materials as these are unlucky. As a result, our specialist Japanese translators ensure that all of your translation projects are culturally-accurate and deliver the intended message.

As the UK’s leading provider of translation services, we require all of our translators to have a minimum of 5 years’ experience. This ensures they are able to deliver high-quality Japanese translations for all of our customers. Our translators must also have an in-depth knowledge of a broad range of business sectors. With this in mind, the team here at Absolute Translations can deliver efficient Japanese translation projects to the highest standard.

Not only are our team highly-skilled and knowledgeable but they are native-speakers who live and work in Japan, meaning their translations are accurate and localised for your target audience. Plus, as they’re working in your target timezone, you won’t have to wait around for the final project.
