While other logistics companies have begun to embrace Lean logistics principles, at Yusen Logistics we have a unique approach that goes somewhat further. It embodies three elements.

It all begins with a Japanese concept called Gemba; visiting the very point in the operations where improvements are needed; understanding on-the-spot processes intimately.

Next, we apply industry-proven Kaizen principles to manage and improve the processes - a core component in the development of all our customer services that offers you incremental quality improvements and cost savings.

But what really differentiates us from our competitors is the third element. Rather than simply applying Gemba and Kaizen as management techniques, they have become part of our corporate culture, at the heart of everything we do. We don’t perform the concepts of Gemba or Kaizen; we live them.

This corporate culture translates into improved delivery performance, lower operating costs and improved processes. For you, that equates to peace of mind, competitive advantage and a contribution straight to the bottom line.
