The Heritage Exchange is an independent importer and UK representative for Japanese frame makers. In October 2026 we met makers across Japan, and the first ranges for Great Britain are now being prepared, to supply optical practices direct, with no distributor in the middle.
Japanese frames, brought to Britain.
Three things done properly, for a small number of makers and practices.
Sourcing
Building direct relationships with frame makers across Japan. No distributor in the middle, and quantities an independent practice can commit to.
Import
We buy in Japan and handle export, freight, customs and duty. You receive frames and one invoice, and none of the paperwork lands on your desk.
UK compliance
Every model we supply is registered with the MHRA before it reaches you. For makers outside the UK, we can act as the UK Responsible Person the law requires.
