After customs clearance, in general, cargo unloaded from a vessel is transported to a remote warehouse for storage. The necessary quantity of cargo is delivered from the warehouse to the designated locations in accordance with the order from the shipper. At the designated location, the shipper processes the cargo—by adjusting quantities, packaging, and delivery to retailers for sale to consumers.
We can handle all these processes on the shipper’s behalf. If so, cargo unloaded from a ship is transported to adjoining warehouses. After customs clearance, we manage the cargo in storage and, upon the order from the shipper, prepare for delivery (quantity adjustments and packaging) and ship the cargo directly to retailers. This reduces transport and indirect operations, reducing CO₂ emissions.

To contribute to business continuity planning (BCP) of our customers and secure supply chain functions in the event of a major disaster, we can unload cargo in ports across Japan and transport cargo via various modes, including trucking, domestic sea transport, and rail.
We’re currently testing a new state-of-the-art transport system in which customer cargo that would have been unloaded at the Port of Tokyo during normal times is unloaded at the Port of Kobe, then transported to the Tokyo area by rail.
