Logistics company highlights two decades of operations in Japan while advancing regional growth across Asia-Pacific.
Hellmann Worldwide Logistics has completed 20 years of operations in Japan, marking two decades since the company established its first office in the country in 2006.
Since entering the Japanese market, Hellmann has developed its local operations and expanded its service portfolio to support customers across industries including automotive, fashion, healthcare and technology. The company currently offers airfreight, seafreight, customs brokerage and selected specialised logistics solutions.
Operating from offices in Tokyo and Osaka, Hellmann Japan provides logistics services to domestic and international customers through customised solutions integrated with the company's global network.
Under its global Forward2030 strategy, Hellmann has identified the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region as a key area for future growth, with Japan positioned as an important and stable market. The company said it will continue developing its operations in Japan in line with customer requirements and market opportunities.
“APAC is an important region within our global strategy “Forward2030” and Japan contributes to this as a mature and innovative market with strong connections to global supply chains. Going forward, we will continue to invest in the region and expand our capabilities to support our customers’ growth with integrated, sustainable logistics solutions,” said Jens Drewes, CEO, Hellmann Worldwide Logistics.
“Over the past years, we have grown our APAC presence by broadening our footprint, strengthening local teams, and building more connected solutions for customers across the region. Japan is part of this development: with our teams in Tokyo and Osaka, we have established a strong local foundation that combines market expertise with the reach of our regional and global network. We will build on this momentum and continue to strengthen Japan’s role within our broader APAC growth journey,” said Sven Raudszus, Regional CEO APAC, Hellmann Worldwide Logistics.
