Overview

orosy runs a B2B wholesale marketplace that links small-scale manufacturers in Asia and Japan to individual stores, retailers, and e-commerce merchants around the world. The platform assumes financial and inventory risk for wholesale transactions, offering services such as 90-day post-pay, returnable unsold inventory, and effectively free shipping. Over 6,000 brands and local stores use orosy’s domestic service, and the company handles overseas sales logistics so manufacturers only need to deliver to orosy’s Tokyo (Nihonbashi) warehouse. The company has begun building an overseas team (including members based in Jamaica and Kazakhstan) to expand sales to buyers in the U.S. and Europe. Proceeds from the recent fundraise will be used to hire engineers and business staff, strengthen domestic operations, launch multiple products around wholesale and peripheral services, and grow a machine-learning function for matching, credit management, and demand-supply balance. Cumulatively the company has raised ¥640 million to date.
