Community through the love of Japan
Connecting local makers with the local community
Hello! We are Mami, and Yuko, local business women in Vancouver. We started Japan Market in 2018 because we each had our own small businesses and had many friends in the community who wanted somewhere to showcase their products. So we started Japan Market! Our goal is to host happy events where vendors can have meaningful interactions with their customers.
