TOKYO -- Japan's cross-border e-commerce is booming again, with many smaller companies joining the market to take advantage of the yen's sharp decline and advances in information technology, the latter of which makes it easier to communicate with buyers and handle customs paperwork.
The weak yen will not last forever, but in the meantime even small Japanese companies have started or are considering e-commerce sales to consumers abroad. (Nikkei montage)
