"Three Gateways"
Driving the Evolution of Our TA-Q-BIN Network in Japan
We have established “gateways” in Atsugi, Chubu, and Kansai that enable high-frequency arterial transportation.
Our three gateways have significantly expanded the areas eligible for same-day deliveries between major cities in Japan.
Starting with these three gateways, we utilize a wide range of logistics terminals to construct our TA-Q-BIN network across Asia.
Speedy delivery utilizing cutting-edge equipment
and all transport modes
Located adjacent to Tokyo International Airport, close to Tokyo and Yokohama ports, Haneda Chronogate has excellent access to rail cargo container terminals and metropolitan expressways, enabling seamless connections across Japan and Asia. It is also equipped with the latest material handling equipment, allowing it to operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The simultaneous sorting of arriving and departing parcels results in speedy delivery continuously.
With the advancement of borderless logistics brought on by the economic and market growth of countries and regions in Asia, Yamato will evolve logistics from a “cost” into a “value creation instrument” with Okinawa Southern Gate as the hub.
