International Express Co.,Ltd. has multipurpose warehouse facilities in the Kanto (Tokyo and Yokohama), Kinki (Kyoto, Osaka, Nara and Kobe) and the Kyushu (Kyushu Island and many nearby smaller islands) regions. Starting above all with imports and exports of air and ocean cargo shipments, we provide domestic cargo warehousing, merchandise & inventory management, distribution processing, delivery and other kinds of services. In regard to handling imports and exports of ocean cargo, we provide bonded and other kinds of warehousing functions and we handle all work tasks related to vanning and de-vanning ocean containers. Not only that, but using our "buyers consolidation" system we can find ways to reduce the time and cost of ocean shipments.

In regard to domestic cargo warehousing, merchandise & inventory management, distribution processing and delivery, this involves more than simply collecting and storing cargo. Picking, inspection, meter reading, packaging, sorting, stem-removal and slicing & packaging of fruits and vegetables are some of the services we also provide to help meet the needs of our customers, all of which contributes to lowering their costs.

We handle a wide variety of cargo items. Examples are precision machinery, machine-related goods, liquid crystal devices, clothing, general merchandise and fruits & vegetables. Our warehousing operations go beyond the ordinary to include cold-temperature storage facilities, part of our broad effort to respond to all kinds of cargo-handling needs. We also make extensive use of supply-chain management practices. In short, we are a full-service distribution company.

Under the care of our full-service international shipping business, newly arrived air cargo is subjected to airport customs clearance, stored in our cold-storage warehouses, inspected, separated and finally delivered as part of one smooth process. Also, as our specialty is event-related cargo, we take charge of the temporary storage and all other handling tasks related to musical and concert stage equipment and accompanying tools and instruments. Also, during Japan's traditional midyear (ochugen) and yearend (oseibo) gift-giving seasons, we undertake full-service storage, package separation and delivery of the gift items sold and shipped by Japan's famous large-scale department stores.
