01. Message from the CEO
CEO MESSAGE
From all over the world, aiming for Japan — for a rich life for foreign residents.
Striving for a society where every foreigner can truly feel, “I’m glad I came to Japan.
I long held the awareness that ‘Japan is by no means an easy country for foreigners to live in.’” This sense of challenge is the origin of Willow. I have seen many foreign people, hindered by cultural, linguistic, or system barriers, who feel anxiety about living in Japan. On the other hand, there are always those who come with dreams and expectations. Among all the many countries, you chose Japan, and by fate you came here — I want those who visit under such circumstances to be able to genuinely feel “I’m glad I came to Japan.” With that one purpose in mind, I established Willow Corporation in 2019.
One-stop support that removes the barriers of ‘housing’ and ‘work
We are a team of professionals supporting the lives of foreign nationals in a comprehensive way. We especially provide specialized support in the areas of “housing” and “work,” which form the foundation of a new life.
Real estate business specialized for foreigners — we eliminate the unease caused by language barriers and differences in customs, and provide a “first safe place” that anyone can live in with peace of mind. From rentals to purchases and investments, we respond to all kinds of needs.
Specified Skills (Tokutei Ginou) Personnel Introduction Business — we realize optimal matching between highly motivated individuals and Japanese companies that seek growth. We connect “work” and “housing,” supporting long-term career formation in Japan.
Life / Business Start-up Support — from establishing essential infrastructure such as mobile phone contracts or opening bank accounts, to establishing a company in Japan. We support all procedures in a one-stop way to build the foundation for a comfortable life.
Turning diversity into strength, being a bridge between Japan and the world
Our activities go beyond merely providing services. We also contribute to resolving larger societal issues such as Japan’s labor shortage, regional revitalization, and “multicultural co-existence.” The future Willow aims for is one where, regardless of nationality or status, people cooperate, share values, and everyone can live happily. We will continue to take on new challenges to become a bridge connecting Japan and the world.

Corporate Philosophy
Corporate Philosophy
Corporate Philosophy
Respecting the “Will” creates “Wow”
Within each person resides a strong will — “this is how I want to be.”
We want to be an organization that crosses national and cultural differences, always respecting and supporting that pure will.
By supporting customers’ challenges and walking together toward a future beyond imagination, we aim to create heartfelt impressions of “thank you” (Wow).
Each of those is precious and woven carefully — that is the origin of Willow Corporation’s activity, and the principle we cherish most.
Vision
A borderless society where anyone can be the “main actor”
We envision a society where the boundary of nationality does not constrain personal potential.
Foreign residents in Japan can live without being troubled by language or custom barriers — taking center stage in business and in life, shining in their own way.
And through the mixing of diverse values, creating a more abundant and stronger Japan. We are serious about realizing that future.
Mission
Turning the challenge of living in Japan into reality through one-stop support in “Housing, Employment, Commerce”
Our mission is to remove people’s “uns,” provide “assurance,” through concrete actions toward realizing our vision.
Support for “Housing”: Leveraging real estate know-how specialized for foreigners, we provide a secure first place to live.
Support for “Work”: Connecting people with workplaces where they can thrive under the Tokutei Ginou status, supporting their career growth.
Support for “Commerce”: Creating new business opportunities through trade, EC (e-commerce) business, and support for starting companies.
By providing specialized services in these domains in a one-stop manner, we strive every day to remove all barriers — be they of language or of system.
