Integrating locations to reduce logistics costs by improving transportation efficiency and compressing inventory
Requests from our customers

Outline of Services
We developed and provided a logistics system that integrated logistics centers—reducing the number of domestic locations from 9 to 5.
By efficiently transporting goods from the customers' factories, not only did we seamlessly replenish the inventories of each distribution center, but we also developed an optimal delivery system that could maintain the existing delivery lead time to our customers' customers from each center.
Example: General Merchandize (Toiletries) Company
