The Panasonic Connect Group (Group CEO: Ken Sain, hereinafter Connect Group) today, April 8, 2026, releases the 6th installment of its brand commercial series, "Kanaeyou Douga." This video introduces the initiative to promote "Smart Logistics" through a co-creation with Fukuoka Unyu Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture; President: Taisuke Tominaga), a pioneer in temperature-controlled transportation.
【Key Message】
This commercial depicts Connect and Fukuoka Unyu co-creating to achieve "total optimization starting from the front line" to address urgent issues facing the logistics industry, including the 2024 problem, through a solution of "Global Standards × Japan Quality." It introduces the initiative to reinvent the "food logistics" site by improving productivity and operational efficiency in the complex field of food logistics through the implementation of Connect Group's delivery progress management system "ZetesChronos(TM)" and warehouse execution system "ZetesMedea(TM)".
【Target Audience for the CM】
Logistics industry professionals, corporate executives, IT/DX promotion managers, general consumers, and media personnel.
【CM Concept】
The "Kanaeyou Douga" series depicts, in a documentary style, case studies where the Connect Group embodies its purpose of "Changing Work, Advancing Society, Connecting to the Future" together with its customers. This 6th installment focuses on Takahiro Watanabe, a CONNECTer (employee) who contributes to the total optimization of Fukuoka Unyu's logistics system by fusing Connect's long-cultivated logistics industry knowledge with the latest digital technology. It conveys a deep understanding of the customer's operations and a passionate commitment to problem-solving from a site-first perspective.
The video, set in the field of "temperature-controlled transport" that delivers food products under strict temperature management such as frozen and chilled goods, shows the ever-increasing market needs, the importance of data utilization to comply with revisions to the logistics efficiency law, and an unchanging stance towards the front line in the AI era, presenting a vision for a sustainable supply chain.
【Creative Approach to Video Production】
With the full cooperation of Fukuoka Unyu, the video portrays the site as it is. Based on a graphical approach to the subjects, camera work such as dolly shots is effectively incorporated to emphasize the contrast between micro and macro perspectives. By subtly retaining the atmosphere of on-site work, we aimed for a lively and persuasive feel. Furthermore, motifs unique to refrigerated, frozen, and room-temperature environments are scattered throughout to express the site's individuality and functional beauty in the footage.
