Mapping the Japanese Diet and Eating Habits for Food Technology Start Up

A food lab wanted to better understand the key factors that shape the Japanese diet and go deeper on their existing knowledge of the market. This related to early stage product development as well as seeking out potential partners for any new venture.

SAORI HIRASAWA

Project Manager

Everyday at CarterJMRN is so different, and that’s why I enjoy working here. I always start my day by following my to-do list – though it’s rare that I can follow them precisely because there are always new projects and tasks. It is very important for us to keep up with the fast pace and be flexible. The best part of working here is learning. I am exposed to a wide range of industries which ensures that I am never bored. After working at CarterJMRN, I have come to see the world differently – even if it’s just the way I look at doing my shopping. For example, I closely observe clients’ products, competitors, layout of the shelving units, observing people’s behavior, etc.. We consider ourselves as a “partner” of our clients and work together with them. It requires a lot of effort to work in a team with very high professional standard, but it has been equally rewarding.
