President Lula\u2019s recent state visit to Japan from March 24 to 27 underscored the importance both nations place on their bilateral cooperation. The visit resulted in the signing of ten agreements and over 80 cooperation instruments, spanning areas from decarbonization and infrastructure to agriculture and science. \u201cThis visit not only reaffirms our strong bilateral relationship,\u201d said Japan\u2019s Ambassador to Brazil Teiji Hayashi, \u201cbut also exemplifies our shared vision for the rule of law, multilateralism, as well as commitment to tackle pressing global challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three months later, from June 5 to 16, Brazil welcomed Her Imperial Highness Princess Kako\u2014a symbolic gesture in the anniversary year. During her visit, Princess Kako attended a commemorative ceremony hosted by Brazil\u2019s National Congress, delivered a speech honoring bilateral ties, and paid a courtesy visit to President Lula. She also met with first-generation Japanese Brazilians and received the Order of the Ipiranga at a dinner hosted by Governor Tarc\u00edsio de Freitas at the Pal\u00e1cio dos Bandeirantes. \u201cThe visit of Her Imperial Highness symbolized the close bond between the two nations,\u201d said Ambassador Hayashi. \u201cWe have already seen more than 70 percent increase of Brazilian visitors to Japan last year,\u201d he added, noting that cultural and people-to-people exchange remains a vital pillar of bilateral ties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further spotlighting the relationship, Brazil celebrated its national day at Expo 2025 in Osaka on June 21 with a full day of cultural programming organized by ApexBrasil. The event featured concerts, film screenings, and exhibitions that honored 130 years of diplomatic ties with Japan and showcased Brazil\u2019s commitment to sustainability and innovation. Performances by artists such as Lisa Ono, Zeca Pagodinho, and M\u00e3eana reflected the richness of Brazilian culture and its enduring connection with Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In S\u00e3o Paulo, Macnica DHW<\/a><\/strong> is leading that charge. Originally founded as DHW Engineering in 2009 by Fabio Petrassem de Sousa, the company has evolved from a niche hardware consultancy into a regional hub for AI and high-performance computing. \u201cStarting the company was moved by several reasons,\u201d Sousa said. \u201cBut above all I decided to take the opportunity and risk of creating a business based on my incredible learning experience I had in the U.K.\u201d That journey eventually led to acquisition by Japan\u2019s Macnica Group. \u201cWe became larger, more relevant and impactful in the electronics industry market,\u201d Sousa added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the mobility sector, a standout example of long-term collaboration is SCI Pneus<\/a><\/strong>, Yokohama\u2019s official distributor in Brazil for over 30 years. \u201cThe tire division was a natural development,\u201d said Pedro Abreu, director at SCI Pneus. \u201cIt aligned perfectly with our existing expertise in foreign trade and representing global brands.\u201d That expertise positioned SCI to support Yokohama\u2019s entry into Brazil\u2019s market in the 1990s. \u201cThrough affiliated companies, we were chosen to launch Yokohama\u2019s commercial presence in Brazil,\u201d Abreu recalled. \u201cBecoming Yokohama\u2019s exclusive distributor marked a turning point. It combined our local knowledge with the strength of a brand globally recognized for its quality and technology.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

As Japan and Brazil celebrate the past and chart a future together, companies like Daikin, Macnica DHW, SCI Pneus, Ocean Network Express\u2014and communities like the Nikkei\u2014are proving that global partnerships thrive on mutual respect, local empowerment, and a shared ambition to shape the future.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The partnership has matured into a robust national operation, blending Japanese technical excellence with Brazilian market agility. \u201cOur commitment is to uphold Yokohama\u2019s brand excellence in Brazil with the same rigor applied in the world\u2019s most demanding markets,\u201d said Abreu. \u201cAt the same time, we tailor our strategies to the local consumer\u2014whether in product mix, lead times, or communication.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SCI\u2019s strengths lie not only in logistics and innovation, but also in human relationships. \u201cBeyond systems, we value close and transparent relationships,\u201d Abreu explained. \u201cWe\u2019ve built long-term partnerships on trust and consistent results.\u201d As the tire industry evolves, SCI is prepared to lead the next phase. \u201cThe industry is moving toward smarter, more integrated solutions\u2014and Yokohama is investing globally in that direction,\u201d Abreu said. \u201cOur goal is to accelerate this momentum in Brazil, while deepening our role across the supply chain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further reinforcing economic ties is Ocean Network Express (ONE)<\/a><\/strong>\u2014a relative newcomer founded in 2017, yet already a vital player connecting Latin America and Asia. Brazil is among its most significant markets. \u201cBy combining innovation, sustainability, and our strong local presence, ONE strengthens the ties between Japan and Latin America\u2014not just with ships, but with trust, a clear vision for the future, and continuous collaboration,\u201d said Colin de Souza, President of ONE Latin America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainability and digital transformation are cornerstones of ONE\u2019s strategy. The company has invested in next-generation vessels such as the ONE Sparkle<\/strong> and ONE Sphere<\/strong>, prepared to run on alternative fuels like methanol and ammonia. These ships support the low-emission transport of sensitive cargo such as fresh fruit, reinforcing the shift toward green ports and renewables in the region. On the digital front, tools like ONE Quote<\/strong>, ONE eBL<\/strong>, and CONTAINER+<\/strong> offer instant quotes, digitized documentation, and real-time tracking of refrigerated cargo\u2014boosting transparency and efficiency across the logistics chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With offices in 11 countries, 16 partner agencies, and over 4,100 active clients\u2014most of them based in Brazil\u2014ONE supports critical sectors like agribusiness and automotive. Its 21 regional services, six of which directly connect to Asia, ensure deeper market integration. New offerings like the East Coast South America Express 2 (SX2)<\/strong> and upgraded River Plate routes (RPX, RMB) further expand access between Brazil and the Far East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This vision of shared innovation aligns with Japan\u2019s strategic priorities in Brazil. \u201cBeing a key country of the so-called Global South, Brazil is a critical partner for Japan in maintaining global stability,\u201d said Ambassador Hayashi. \u201cIt will become all the more critical for the two partners to collaborate\u201d on challenges shaped by \u201cnew technologies including artificial intelligence.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainability is another unifying theme. \u201cJapan applauds Brazil\u2019s effort to preserve tropical forest in Amazonia while maintaining sustainable economic growth that benefits the region and the world,\u201d said the Ambassador, noting Brazil\u2019s pivotal role as host of COP30 in Bel\u00e9m this November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout these advancements, the Nikkei community\u20142.7 million strong\u2014continues to serve as a living bridge. \u201cThey are the largest group of people of Japanese descent living overseas,\u201d said Ambassador Hayashi. \u201cNow that the Japanese Brazilian community has moved on to the third, fourth and fifth generations, they are active in all fronts of Brazilian society.\u201d He emphasized, \u201cThe 130th anniversary\u2026 is also a strong reminder of the important contribution made by Nikkei Brazilians in both countries.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Sousa, the Japan\u2013Brazil connection has been both personal and professional. \u201cIn spite of all the differences, we share the same values,\u201d he said. \u201cIt was very rewarding to see how much our local specificities were respected, and how empowered I felt to carry on with my work\u2014with all the support, but not with interference.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
