What MOJOPRINT UK LTD does

MOJOPRINT UK LTD operates as an English-language commercial printing and design service within Japan, registered legally as 有限会社 Mojoprint (a yugen gaisha limited liability company) headquartered in Minoo, Osaka Prefecture. The company is structured around a direct-to-consumer e-commerce model via mojoprint.jp, where customers can browse a catalog of more than 100 print products, configure specifications, upload print-ready files, and complete transactions entirely online with bilingual English/Japanese support throughout. Core production capabilities span four-color CMYK offset lithography using Computer-to-Plate (CTP) technology at speeds up to 18,000 sheets per hour, on-demand toner printing, aqueous/solvent/UV-curable/pigment inkjet, and silkscreen, with custom finishes including foil stamping, embossing, die-cutting, lamination, and spot UV.

The product catalog is organized into three broad groups: standard print materials (flyers, business cards, postcards, posters, magazines, brochures, calendars, envelopes, company profiles, presentation folders), signage and large-format display (banners, signs, flags, gazebo tents, panel displays), and promotional merchandise (apparel, mugs, coasters, uchiwa fans, pens, tote bags, notebooks, wristbands, lanyards). Design services, color proofing, layout templates, and paper sample books are offered as paid or free add-ons to support customers who lack print-ready artwork. Pricing is unit-based with quantity tiers, all-inclusive of 10% Japanese sales tax, with delivery surcharges varying by destination (mainland Japan, Hokkaido, Okinawa).

Mojoprint serves English-speaking expats, foreign-owned small and medium businesses operating in Japan, and international exhibitors at Japanese trade shows who need locally produced printed materials with English-language communication. The company is privately held and founder/owner-operated by Lee Daniel (listed as 販売責任者, the Specified Commercial Transactions Act sales representative), with no external institutional investment, parent company, or subsidiary structure identified. Operations run on a lean 1-10 person team, with nationwide fulfillment handled through third-party couriers (primarily Sagawa Kyubin) and payments processed via Stripe, PayPal, and Wise for international customers.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Vistaprint: Global online printing incumbent with broad product catalog and Japan presence. Not Japan-specialized but competes for the same SMB and consumer print customers with similar self-serve e-commerce experience.
• Canva Print: Design-first platform with integrated print-on-demand that bundles template design with physical production. Competes on the design-services add-on that Mojoprint offers separately.

Direct peers

• Printpac: Japanese online print shop specializing in flyers, business cards, and posters with quantity-tiered pricing and same structure as Mojoprint. Overlaps directly on product mix, though Printpac is Japanese-only.
• Moo: Premium online business card and print platform known for high-end finishes and design-forward positioning. Comparable in product category and English-first customer experience, though without Japan-specific localization.
• Graphic Center: Long-standing Japanese commercial printer offering business cards, flyers, and signage online. Comparable product breadth and offset capabilities but primarily Japanese-language service.
• Shimauma Print System: Online Japanese printing service focused on flyers, postcards, and business cards with quantity-based pricing and same-day cutoff workflows. Direct competitor on product offering and ordering flow.
• Print Five: Japanese online printing chain with storefronts and digital ordering for business cards, flyers, and signage. Overlaps on product category and target SMB customer.
