Chased by a busy schedule 24 hours a day, months and years pass until you suddenly notice that your encounters with the opposite sex are limited and you seldom have a chance of meeting a soul mate, let alone a spouse. Hiroko Ozawa, president of Destina Japan, noticed that many of her peers felt that way when she was studying in Manhattan.
Finding a business opportunity in such a condition, she established her company in 1996 in New York. What she specifically did was introduce Japanese women to American men on the premise of marriage.
"Not just any American guy, but those with a high level of education, good earning, and a fine personality, of course," points out Nick Naruse, chairman and CEO of Destina Japan.
