About Our Name
On July 8, 1853, residents of feudal Japan beheld an astonishing sight—foreign warships entering Tokyo harbor under a cloud of black smoke. The arrival of Commodore Perry's Black Ships persuaded Japan to open its doors to trade and friendship with the West, ending 200 years of self-imposed isolation.
Today, many Japanese companies still lack the will to engage in overseas trade. That's why we built Blackship.
A Message From Our Founder & CEO
Hi, I'm Max Hodges, the Founder of Blackship.
We're on a mission to make buying stuff from Japan as simple and easy as possible. What makes Blackship different is how much friction we've removed from the process to get your packages moving forward fast.
As pioneers of proxy buying service in Japan, we launched White Rabbit Express over 12 years ago. Today our buy-and-ship service is used by people in 125 countries, and we've earned our reputation as the most customer-focused company in the industry. 97% of customers surveyed say they are highly-likely to recommend White Rabbit Express to a friend.
We built Blackship so that people who need package forwarding service can enjoy the same level of innovation and customer care which makes our buying service so popular.
I’d like to personally welcome you to give Blackship a try. If you don't think we've succeeded in delivering the best experience possible, I want to hear about it. You can always email me directly at [email protected]
Enjoy shopping from Japan!
Max Hodges, Blackship CEO
P.S. If you tried our service way back when, we invite you to try it again. Our buy-and-ship and package forwarding services are unlike any earlier version. We’d love to welcome you back.
