Aiming to Be an Integrated Logistics Provider Offering World-Class Services to Deliver Valued Satisfaction to Customers. Hiromitsu Kuramoto, President

In October 2010, Yusen Air & Sea Service, 55 years after its establishment, and NYK Logistics (Japan), with its 27 year history, integrated to create Yusen Logistics Co., Ltd.

The integrations will begin in more than 20 countries and regions around the world this April, with the remaining countries moving ahead with successive integrations during this term. All integrations in 36 countries worldwide, including Japan, will be complete by April 2012. We will become an global logistics provider with approximately 16,000 employees, 400 locations, and 2 million square meters of warehouse space, and have a global network that spans ocean, land and air.

With the new launch of Yusen Logistics Group, on March 31 we announced our mid-term business plan, "GO FORWARD, Yusen Logistics", for the next three years. Our steady progress towards achieving this goal will be the first step toward taking on even greater challenges in the future, so all Group company employees will work together as one.

From our beginnings we have advocated customer centricity, quality & gemba focus, HR-oriented management, and environmental management, founded on the NYK Group Value of integrity, innovation and intensity. We aim to become a truly global logistics provider that responds to our customers' increasingly sophisticated logistical needs, and maintains a world-class scale and quality of service.

We look forward to receiving everyone's continued support and patronage.

Hiromitsu Kuramoto, President

About Our Logo

The logo expresses a soaring and vibrant feeling towards tomorrow and a sense of flight shared by the Group, which provides services on land, sea and air. The black sumi color is an image representing the vast Earth and the color of the wing gradually changes from sky blue at its roots to the deep ocean blue of the boundless ocean at its tip. The Company believes this appropriately expresses the logistics service and the spread of the business of the new integrated company, Yusen Logistics, as an integrated logistics provider.
