It formulates brand and product communication strategies rooted in Japan as a whole and in specific regions, and is responsible for communication and store layout in collaboration with individual stores and relevant departments.Within this framework, the Social Marketing Team generates public buzz through the management of the company’s social media accounts. The team is responsible for everything from account management strategies and content development to coordinating with influencers and internal and external affiliates.
