Our Story
Discover how Loginet became a leading force in the used Japanese car export industry
Loginet, a motor vehicle export company dealing in used Japanese cars, was established when founders Gabriel Tejera and Keima Ozawa decided to merge their two respective companies Unet Co. Ltd. and Urban Export Co. Ltd. into one larger auto dealer.
Following the Corona Virus outbreak, the two businessmen embraced the idea of a highly flexible car dealership business that would promote remote work, efficiency, and online availability of products to deliver a superior customer experience. By leveraging their 16 years' combined knowledge of the used Japanese cars market they've managed to turn Loginet into a successful venture with a USD 10 million annual turnover. From destinations as far apart as the USA in North America, to Myanmar in East Asia, Loginet now has a footprint across 15 countries and a fast-growing customer base.
Our Mission
Our mission is to simplify the car purchasing process and the associated logistics, making it as straightforward, fast, and secure as possible. We are dedicated to creating value throughout the entire supply chain, ensuring a seamless experience for our customers.
Our Vision
We plan to grow Loginet from a provider of car export services operating in Japan into a global player that buys and sells vehicles from all the major used car markets in the world. We have the passion, expertise, and resources to become a leader in the used Japanese cars business.
Our Team
We have brought on board a team of young and highly talented personnel from diverse backgrounds whom we encourage to think outside the box when solving customer issues. They operate within a hybrid work scheme that allows for more efficient and quality service to buyers looking for Japanese cars for sale.
