Leading a future-ready business

 

CEO, COO Message

Since founding in 1955, the Yusen Logistics Group has been providing high-quality solutions tailored to the diverse and sophisticated needs of our customers as a global supply chain logistics company. With operations in 46 countries and regions around the world, in 2025 we celebrated 70 years since our founding as we continue to face diverse logistics challenges alongside our customers.

In our Vision, Mission and Values, we defined our mission to become the world’s preferred supply chain logistics company, and these guiding principles are shared by our over 25,000 employees worldwide.  

To accelerate the growth of the Yusen Logistics Group, we have established Yusen Logistics Global Management Co., Ltd. to lead the global management as the new Global Headquarters company. This is part of our Corporate Transformation initiative outlined in our long-term vision, "TRANSFORM 2025". Starting in 2025, under this new group organizational structure, we will continue to provide better values to our customers and stakeholders.

As a core company within the NYK Group, we are committed to the realization of a sustainable society. We will continue to promote long-term efforts that connect people, businesses and communities to a better future.
