Message from President
Recently, logistics needs have continued to diversify. On the other hand, logistics providers will be challenged to rapidly adapt their business models in response to several challenges. These include the anticipated shortage of drivers, known as the "Logistics 2024 Problem," the shortage of dock workers and crew members, shortage of IT workers coupled with security risks, known as the "2025 Cliff" problem, and changes in work styles driven by the global pandemic.
In response, the FUJITRANS Group is committed to digital transformation (DX) as a key approach to realizing its medium-term management plan, FUJITRANS 2030, which was initiated in 2023. The company is actively working to innovate business processes and create new value propositions. At the core of our initiatives is the goal of developing high-value services that delight our customers by focusing on improving the digital and IT skills of our employees and fostering a mindset shift that empowers them to tackle challenges on their own.
Our mid-term management plan features the motto "Spirit of 'wa' & KEEP ON TRYING," signifying our commitment to persistently address the dual challenges of "improving and expanding existing businesses" and "creating and advancing new business models.” We are committed to taking on the challenges of digital transformation (DX), and we will continue to deliver new value and satisfaction along with our customers' cargo by promptly responding to their needs.
