Nippon Express positioned the pharmaceutical industry as a priority industry in 
the Nippon Express Group Business Plan 2023 -Dynamic Growth- that began this 
fiscal year, and accordingly is setting up four key locations in Japan (East 
Japan, West Japan, Kyushu and Toyama) to construct a pharmaceutical product 
supply network enabling the total optimization of pharmaceutical logistics. It 
is also making steady progress in establishing import/export locations to link 
these four hubs in Japan with overseas locations, and this most recent 
certification is part of this effort.

Obtaining GDP certification in the Narita area, one of Japan's principal air 
cargo gateways, will better enable Nippon Express to provide high-quality and 
safe pharmaceutical transport services on a global level.
