About OgiAuto
OgiAuto is a portal into the Japanese used vehicle market for buyers outside Japan. If you want a reliable way to buy vehicles from Japan, to resell or for your own use, we can help.
Our goal
To help customers outside Japan get access to used vehicles, parts and services related to used vehicles. We use our experience and knowledge to help customers get a good result when buying from, and dealing with, Japan.
Our values
We are a family business. We want to grow slowly but surely and build good relationships along the way.
20+ years in the vehicle export industry
For over twenty years the owner and staff of OgiAuto have worked in vehicle manufacture, sales and maintenance in Japan, and with vehicle exporters based in Japan’s main cities. Those relationships let us inspect vehicles in detail before purchase. We attend auto auctions in person, so customers can see exactly what they are bidding on. We can also buy vehicles and parts from commercial retailers and through internet auctions in Japan, such as Yahoo Auctions.
Corporate structure
OgiAuto works with its partner company Globalink for auction buying and exporting. Globalink has long-standing relationships with Japanese car auctions and shipping agents. That lets us concentrate on sourcing and preparing cars, while Globalink handles Japanese-side documentation and shipping bookings. When you buy a car from OgiAuto, the name on the invoice and the name of the exporter will be Globalink.
