About
Focus America Corporation was founded in 2012 in New York City by Atsushi, with a vision to bridge Japan and the U.S. through exceptional products and cultural exchange. Today, our mission is supported not only by our New York team, but also by partners in Hawaii, Tokyo, and Yokohama.
As Japanese professionals living in the U.S., we have a unique perspective that helps us discover and curate outstanding Japanese products—where refined design meets everyday practicality—and bring them to American consumers.
Beyond distribution, we promote the beauty and depth of Japan’s regions through cultural and marketing initiatives, primarily based in New York.
Our online store, Santokunyc.com, showcases a carefully selected collection of Japanese-made goods, and we also supply wholesale to retailers, hotels, cafes, and bars across the U.S. and Canada.
We began by introducing Japan to the U.S. Today, we’re also looking to bring inspiring American brands to Japan and to share the excellence of Japan with the rest of the world.
