ABOUT US

エレガント・トレード・リミテッド

Elegant  trade  limited

Elegant Trade Limited was founded in 2003, and a year later established a branch office in Tokyo. Since then, the company has built long-term partnerships with several renowned Japanese sake breweries, directly importing sake and shochu. Through years of dedicated effort, our company has successfully secured exclusive distribution rights for over ten distinguished Japanese breweries, strengthening our portfolio and expanding our premium beverage offerings.

With deep knowledge and expertise in Japanese sake and shochu, our company has introduced numerous brands into the Hong Kong market. It now represents over a hundred product varieties. In addition to providing a stable supply to many local restaurants, the company also sources rare and unique products from Japan to meet the diverse needs of its clients. Today, Elegant Trade Limited’s premium alcoholic beverages are widely featured across Hong Kong’s vibrant dining scene. Looking ahead, the company remains committed to investing in the introduction of exceptional products, offering customers an ever-broader and more refined selection.

Building on years of experience importing Japanese alcoholic beverages, Elegant Trade Limited has recently expanded into importing Japanese seafood and food products. Carefully selected premium and fresh seafood from Tokyo’s Toyosu Market is supplied directly to the Hong Kong dining industry. Thanks to its stable, high-quality supply chain and competitive pricing, the company’s clientele has rapidly grown, including prestigious partners such as the Island Shangri-La and Kowloon Shangri-La Hotels, as well as numerous fine sushi restaurants and Japanese izakayas.

Our company’s dedicated staff personally visit Tokyo’s Toyosu Market daily to handpick the freshest seafood and to stay informed of the latest market trends and seasonal changes in fish availability, ensuring customers always receive the freshest and most seasonal selections. As Elegant Trade Limited also operates Japanese izakayas and Sake Pairing specialty restaurants, the company fully understands the importance of ingredient sourcing for restaurant operations. Thus, strict standards are applied to the quality, variety, and cost efficiency of all seafood.

Through these practices, Elegant Trade Limited has earned the trust of many specialized seafood suppliers, including those dealing in natural and farmed tuna, monkfish liver, premium fish, shellfish, and sea urchin. The company maintains long-term, stable partnerships with these suppliers to ensure consistent quality and reliability.

In every import operation from Toyosu Market, Elegant Trade Limited prioritizes the interests of its customers. Helping clients reduce costs and improve profitability lies at the heart of the company’s philosophy. Guided by this “Customer First” principle, Elegant Trade Limited is confident in continuing to earn clients’ trust and achieving a mutually beneficial, win–win relationship together.

Steady  Supply:

Our stock is based on client demand. Once a customer chooses a type of sake, it will be regularly imported to Hong Kong, bringing guests as close as possible to their Japanese sake of choice. Having developed its position in the Japanese sake wholesale market over the previous years, Elegant Trade Limited boasts a mature sales network, meaning our stock is constantly updated.

 

Moreover, throughout the transportation from Japan to Hong Kong, we maintain the cold chain, ensuring quality products.

Order and delivery:

We welcome catering orders and remain available for delivery Monday through Friday. Upon receiving an order, we can arrange delivery for the following day. No products have a minimum order quantity, even just one bottle can be ordered. Our minimum order amount is HK$ 500. Our products are wholesale for the catering industry, so retail service is not available.

Sake  knowledge training:

The production of Japanese sake and shochu are quite complex processes and contain numerous variations. Therefore, to enhance understanding, we are available to provide sake and shochu knowledge training to the customers’ staff. If interested, you can make an appointment with our Japanese SSI-approved “Japanese Sake Lecturer” for a one-hour lecture. For distinguished customers, this training is free of charge.

After-sales  service:

Our staff often does customer visits. For example, if customers have questions regarding the sales or quality of products, our salesperson will be there to answer in detail. As for after-sales service, we also create promotional tools such as table tents and menus to help give customers the best business conditions.
