Q: Why should I choose Le Noble among a lot of direct import shops?
A:

We originally started as a trading company and then we opened company stores.

Most of the direct import shops are retailers and almost all of them purchase products from some other trading companies or agents.
Prices go up as many traders or agents are involved between them. On the contrary, we have experience over 25 years as a trading company.
Making good use of our experience, we opened "Le Noble" shop to offer tablewares to customers. This is actually called direct import shop.
That is why we can deliver excellent tablewares promptly with fair price.

 

Q: I hear that there are authorized import agencies of manufacturers.
A:

We are not on the side of manufacturers, but on the side of customers.

Most of tableware manufacturers have their own agents called authorizedimporters.
Some manufacturers wanted us to be an authorized importer; however, we chose to be a parallel importer because authorized importers can deal only with the products of manufacturers.

Sometimes upon request, they have to sell what they do not really want to sell.
Rather than that, to trade excellent products freely with a variety of manufacturers leads to customers' satisfaction, we believe. We chose to be on the side of customers at all times.
As a result, the prodcuts that we are dealing in so far have extended to over 5,000 varieties from over 30 manufacturers in the world.

 

Q: Is it possibly more reasonable buying products overseas than buying in Japan?
A:

Our price is more reasonable than that in local market because of our trustful relationship with shippers overseas.

Nowadays, increasing number of people go shopping on their trip to Europe, and/or shop by mail order. In view of prices and varieties of products, we deliver you more satisfaction for sure.
To give an actual example, when a member of Le Noble went business trip to London, he bought tablewares at Wedgewood, and after he came back to Japan, he visited us and compared the price to ours.
To his surprise, we offered better price than that of local market.
We have had business with shippers throughout the world for a long time. Our efforts to build up reliable relationships with them made our business become successful.

 

Q: Are you able to answer my special requirements?
A:

To answer your requirements is our chance to show our abilityl.

The more people know about tablewares, the more they want to collect rare products.
For example, a customer wants 100 sets of certain products within a limited period to use as a present given to guests at a wedding reception.
Regarding rare products, it is very difficult to arrange 100 sets at a time; however, it is our chance to show our abilityl.
We will meet your expectation with our abundant experience and reliable relationship with shippers all over the world.
Please feel free to ask us your special requirements.
(Please kindly understand that we can not deal in the products that are made for exclusive use to Japanese agents by manufacturers.)
