Just Hungry

General notes on Germany: The biggest Japanese expat community is in the Düsseldorf area.

Updated March 24, 2008.

Mailorder company based in Germany

• Ja-Mart is based in Germany and also states on their web site (which is in German, English and Japanese) that they ship to various countries in Europe. Besides food, they sell kitchenware, tableware, etc. including some 220V electrical appliances such as Zojirushi rice cookers.

Comments on Ja-Mart: They tend to be rather slow in responding, though they do eventually ship! They sell some unusual items such as natto kinase (natto spores) for making their own natto! For Swiss shoppers, they do ship to Switzerland though it’s not listed in their dropdown menu of countries. (maki)
