About Us

Diplomatic rigor,
applied to corporate growth

WoodeyeField is a consulting and intermediation firm linking business between Brazil and Japan. We combine disciplined judgment from embassy practice with a nationwide network on the ground—going beyond transactional matchmaking to bridge the cultures and convictions behind the deal.

Message from the founder

For many years I served in the Commercial Section of the Embassy of Brazil in Japan, promoting exports of Brazilian products. Working at the highest levels of government engagement and market opening gave me rare insight into producers across Brazil, industry structure, and the latest developments in food and ingredients.

After leaving the embassy, I stayed on the front line of Brazil–Japan business—import intermediation for honey, propolis, and other natural resources, and field research on Brazilian companies for Japanese clients. As resources grow scarcer and input costs climb, Brazil’s vast territory still holds many opportunities the world has yet to discover.

I want to remain a trusted advisor for individuals and companies that face those opportunities head-on. That is why I founded this firm. With sound judgment and our network on the ground as our core assets, we support durable relationships that work for both Brazil and Japan.

Our three strengths

01

Judgment forged in embassy commercial practice

Years alongside government stakeholders and market-opening work give us a credible lens for vetting products—assessing value, production story, and supply stability together—so you can move toward partnerships built to last.

02

On-the-ground producer network across Brazil

From food and crop growers to suppliers of natural resources and materials, nationwide relationships and first-hand intelligence gathered in the field underpin how we connect sound products and partners with corporate buyers.

03

Bridging culture and business practice

We interpret Japanese decision-making and Brazilian culture and negotiation norms for both sides, narrowing gaps in expectation so projects can advance with clarity and confidence.
