Logistics Center Development and Provision

From land selection to "Build to Suit" warehouse construction, we build optimal logistics centers

We build optimal logistics centers that meet the characteristics and needs of our customers. We not only make proposals based on our own properties, but also select land in accordance with the customer's requirements, construct a BTS (Build To Suit)*1 warehouse, introduce material handling systems*2 at the new location, develop WMS*3, operate the warehouse, and provide a delivery network tailored to each customer.

*1 A method of developing and operating large-scale logistics facilities. A tailor-made facility in which logistics facilities are designed, constructed, and operated in accordance with the shipper's requirements.
*2 A handling method involving the movement of all raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods within a production or logistics base. Initiatives that aim to minimize the time and effort required to move/transport goods.
