BUSINESS

Our Services

With warehousing at our core, we take care of your products end to end — we keep them, process them, and send them out.

01 KEEP

Keep

Centered on ambient (dry) storage, we handle everything from small items to oversized cargo. With approx. 13,154 m² of total floor space, we flexibly accommodate multi-SKU small-lot, lot-controlled, and expiry-controlled storage, as well as fluctuations in inventory volume.

02 PROCESS

Process

We provide value-added processing such as inspection, packing, kitting, and labeling. Using a barcode WMS with handheld terminals, we design workflows tailored to each customer's specifications.

03 DELIVER

Deliver

Based on your shipping instructions, we handle inspection, packing, and dispatch. We also support combined B2B storage and parcel (direct-to-consumer) fulfillment, delivering nationwide — mainly across western Japan — in partnership with our carrier network.

EVIDENCE / PROOF ON THE FLOOR A barcode WMS with handheld inspection manages receiving, locations, shipping, and stocktaking end to end. What sustains 160,000 shipments with zero mis-shipments is not spreadsheets — it is on-site operational discipline.

We maintain storage and shipping accuracy without mixing up SKUs, lots, expiry dates, or destinations.
