We welcome conversations at any time with people who want to build a business with us.
Why SoA
Why work with SoA
Be on the side that builds the business
This is the phase of imagining and launching the business itself, not carrying out a fixed job.
Your proposals become the company's decisions.
Agriculture, trading and digital
Stand in the paddies, take part in trade and work with technology.
Production, B2B trade, e-commerce and app development in one company is an experience hard to find elsewhere.
From the field to the world
Our base is a rice field in Kawagoe. Our eyes are on markets in Japan and abroad.
Work that combines local hands-on reality with a global perspective.
