COLUMN

It is precisely because of this crisis that we are prepared to act and have a responsibility to carry out our mission.

After the Great East Japan Earthquake, land transportation came to a halt due to the disruption of roads and railways. "Someone, send supplies to the disaster-stricken areas!" Our company was the only one to respond to this cry and make mass and large-scale transportation possible. All urban functions came to a halt. However, we decided to do whatever we could. With that single thought, we gathered 34 tanker trucks, 16 heavy machinery such as power shovels and bulldozers, and 8 trailers loaded with beverages and food. This transportation resulted in connecting lives and livelihoods in the disaster-stricken areas. "It is precisely in times of crisis for Japan that we must act." Our company has once again become strongly aware of its social role and mission. Currently, in order to fulfill that mission, we are working to prepare for the transportation of emergency supplies and to accumulate know-how.
