Our Han Translation Blog has evolved into a more dynamic and interactive product feed. The focus will also shift from individual products to design groups, and our online stores have been reorganized to better support this modified direction.

Han Translation has yet again adapted its products and services to incorporate a revolutionary web technology. Metaplace. A virtual world on the internet, or a 3D web space.

We have opened a storefront in this new environment and encourage our loyal customers to have a look and share your opinion. The site is still in closed beta testing, but will open to the public soon. At that time, anyone will be able to embed our flash-based virtual world in a blog or web page.

Metaplace: HanTranslation

For years we have built our Cafepress.com shop into an internationally known brand. We are pleased with the success and have previously been unwilling to explore other distributors for our products.

However, recent changes to the Zazzle.com service has presented us with a new opportunity. As a result, we using them to test a small boutique shop of Han Translation Gift products.

These specialty items will not be found in our main store, and are planned to rotate seasonally. We think this limited expansion is an exciting opportunity for us and our loyal customers. We invite you to visit the satellite boutique at:

Over the past few months, Han Translation has expanded its web store and translation capacity.

On the art side, several hundred new designs have been added to our product inventory. These range in language and style, as we have aimed to satisfy the diversified interests of our loyal customers. We are also considering other web store supply vendors, and hope to offer a new range of product types in the near future.

On the translation side, our Nagoya office has finished its relocation and expansion. This move was a needed step to facilitate the growth of our China-to-Japan business services. While we continue to operate our Chicago office, many of our resources have shifted to Asia. However, this has only given us more tools to better fulfill the needs of our global clients.

These are just a few of the exciting updates that we have been involved in with our translation and design work. All in an effort to add as much value as possible to what we do, which allows our clients to be even more successful at what they do best – and save on costs.
