As Daniel’s Wine Club continues to expand, we are looking to welcome new team members who are eager to grow with us.

We take great pride in being Japan’s leading importer and promoter of Romanian wine, and at the same time, the most influential educator of Romanian wine in the country. We approach this role with a strong sense of responsibility. For us, wine is not merely a product. It is culture, people, land, history, and a powerful way to connect human beings.

We are a mission-driven company fueled by high motivation and intellectual curiosity.

We have two clear purposes:

• to build cultural and economic bridges between countries and people through the culture of wine
• to offer joy to people

We operate within an ecosystem that connects outstanding Romanian winemakers with restaurants, buyers, and wine lovers across Japan. We are proud to contribute to genuine friendship and mutual understanding between people across borders.

We are a company that is building not only a business based on numbers but an environment where people can connect and grow together.
