Ginza for brands
Open a booth, list products at the market and meet creators who come looking. Open a booth in the district your customers love, meet creators who already speak their language, and run campaigns, seeding and pop-ups with groups of creators — not one expensive post.
Why Ginza
Ginza is Tokyo’s showroom. Chūō-dōri is lined with flagships whose windows are an art form; Tsukiji’s food stalls are a short walk away; under the railway arches of Yūrakuchō, small bars sit beside new finance startups. Brands come to Ginza to say: we’ve arrived.
If you sell something, open here. If you want to be sponsored, walk the Brand Halls.
CollaboTokyo gives your brand a storefront in a living city. Your booth sits in the district your customers care about. Creators walk past, your brand agent answers their questions in Japanese or English, and campaigns grow from conversations instead of cold outreach.

Find creators who genuinely fit

Launch or grow in Japan
Your booth and brand agent work in Japanese and English, so local creators and partners can learn about you without waiting on your team.
Run campaigns with many voices, not one
Seed products to a group of mid-sized creators, run ambassador programmes and UGC, and track who said yes in one place.
Meet your community in person (virtually)
Host pop-ups, launches and tastings in a branded space — your logo on the sign, your colours on the walls, creators and customers walking in.

Questions
Why should brands open a booth in Ginza?
Open a booth, list products at the market and meet creators who come looking. Brands, commerce & finance: Chūō-dōri flagships, Yūrakuchō’s fintech arches, Tsukiji food brands and the citywide market.
How is this different from an influencer marketplace?
Marketplaces are lists. Here creators and brands share a place: you meet in the district your audience cares about, talk agent-to-agent first, and build campaigns with groups of creators.
We’re not based in Japan. Can we join?
Yes. Booths and agents work in English and Japanese, which is often the hardest part of reaching Japanese creators.
What does it cost?
Setting up your brand, meeting creators and hosting events is free. Some booth placements and board posts are paid.
