The target is to strength our presence in the Asian market, capturing new clients and growing our sales in the region
Sao Paulo – (Bovespa: TAMM4 and NYSE: TAM). On April 27, we will open a representation office in Tokyo, Japan. The target of the new office is to strength our presence in the Asian market, capturing new clients and increasing sales in the region. We will work through a GSA (General Sales Agent), who will have a team exclusively dedicated to TAM’s business.
„Opening an office in Tokyo is part of our international expansion strategy. The Japanese market has great potential, and we will be able to offer even greater connectivity between Brazil and Japan after we officially join the Star Alliance, which is scheduled to happen on May 13“, states Paulo Castello Branco, TAM’s Commercial and Planning VP.
The opening ceremony of the new office in Tokyo will be graced with the presence of the Brazilian Ambassador to Japan, Mr. Luiz Augusto de Castro Neves, and of TAM’s Commercial and Planning VP, among other executives, officials and guests. During the event, the new TAM manager in Japan, Mr. Giuliano Ponzio, will be introduced.
In Asia, we already have representation offices in South Korea, Hong Kong, Thailand and Taiwan. As of May, we will also have a representative in India.
