How hot is Swedish culture/design in Japan? Importing goods to Japan

[AmiraHime]

Hiya!

I am not sure as to whether this is the right forum to post this; I hope so, otherwise I apologise in advance

I am trying to find out how great the interest is for swedish goods in Japan, as I have been thinking of starting up an import/export business, first online then - hopefully - personally to people in Japan (mainly Tokyo).

I was hoping to get useful tips and advice from this forums inhabitants, as you have been kind with your guidence before ^_^

Please do ask, if questions arise; curiousity did not kill the cat ;P

Denmark, Germanany and Switzerland are doing better than Sweden or Finland. Not too hot.. but not bad either

Please correct me if i am wrong.

Hmm, do elaborate. As you are living in Japan, you are probably the perfect person to ask ^^

In a daily basis, how often do you get in touch with Nordic, and swedish items? Or things/events relating to Sweden?

I do not feel particularly loved xD

Bow down and hail to Denmark!

Haha, you wish - just because you got Skåne on your side ;P

Swedish Style

Are you aware of the yearly event "Swedish Style Tokyo"? If you go to their website I'm sure you can find plenty of useful information. No link, sorry, but you can google for it.
