On April 1st, 2025, ZenGroup proudly celebrated its 11th anniversary. To mark the occasion, our team gathered at our head office to hear from our CEOs and enjoy cake and drinks together!

From our humble beginnings as a small startup with just four co-founders, ZenGroup has built a workforce of over 400 employees, operating multiple distinct services. This remarkable journey reflects our team’s commitment to our mission and their passion for promoting Japanese businesses to the world.
