Interview with partner company Shinkyo Transportation Co., Ltd.

Hello, I’m Ichiki of Sync Logistics.

Today I’d like to share with you part of an article about one of our partner companies.

Sometimes we receive comments such as “Exporting is tough with its ups and downs, right?” It’s true that the number of products we handle do decrease based on restrictions in certain countries. However, as long as we have partner companies that understand the global market (overall demand) and are willing to work with us to create services the world wants, we will be able to bring back the number of vehicles we handle. We would like to continue building relationships with our partner companies where we can look to the future with a bright outlook.

■An excerpt from an interview with Mr. Suguru Miyanomae of the Sales Department of Shinkyo Transportation
“Sync Logistics is forward-thinking and flexible, bringing a breath of fresh air to the port industry.

Our company has been positively stimulated by Sync Logistics, which is an enterprising and determined company. Originally, we had a “passive sales” approach, and we were not on an expanding growth kind of track. But thanks to Sync Logistics breaking barriers and their efforts to increase business, our intra-company mindset has shifted to a more proactive direction.

I myself have learned a lot from Sync Logistics. I am now more aggressive when negotiating with the port authority for yard expansion, or when making proposals to shippers. Because there aren’t any port operators that want to expand their yards these days, the port authority was surprised, saying I’m the only one who’s negotiating for such a thing.

There are no guarantees in the used car export business, as exports can suddenly cease due to conditions in the destination country. Therefore, it’s a risk for us to rent more land for our yard in the medium to long term. But thanks to the support of enterprising clients such as Sync Logistics, we are able to hedge our risks by expanding our business to products other than used cars.”

Shinkyo Transportation Co., Ltd. which runs a port transport business based at Sakai Senboku Port in Osaka, supports Sync Logistics by providing container vanning services of used cars and the preparation of customs clearance documents. Shinkyo Transportation says that working with Sync Logistics, which has a “proactive stance,” has changed its intra-company mindset, and has shifted its sales policy from “passive sales” to “proactive sales.”

We asked Mr. Suguru Miyanomae of the Sales Department about the operations contracted by Sync Logistics and the effects of their partnership.
I hope you will take the time to read it.
