■ Challenges and Solutions: Logistics Function Reinforcement via Hub Separation and Emerging Recruitment Needs
To respond to expanding demand in the Tokyo metropolitan area, our company implemented an organizational structural reform on February 16, 2026, to clearly separate sales and logistics functions. By relocating the Saitama Sales Office to a new facility and operating the old facility as the "Metropolitan First Center" dedicated to logistics functions, we have improved inventory storage capacity and realized operational efficiency through the introduction of the latest warehouse systems. To fully utilize the specifications of this facility and continue providing high-quality customer service, securing delivery drivers is absolutely essential. Our company will preemptively address the recruitment needs arising from the hub separation through the "Moving Job Posting" project, which turns the delivery trucks themselves into media.
■ Uniqueness of this Project (Differences from Ordinary Recruitment Campaigns)
1. "Asset Mediaization" Strategy to Resolve BtoB Companies' Lack of Recognition
To break through the current situation where companies easily get buried in specification comparisons on job sites, we are converting our own trucks running through the city into media. We will challenge the construction of a sustainable recruitment cost structure that does not rely on external media.
2. Image Renovation through Proven Implementation of "Health Management"
We will broadcast our track record as a certified "Excellent Enterprise of Health and Productivity Management" from the frontlines of the workplace: the trucks. We will prove that work-style reform utilizing IT can become a growth strategy for the logistics industry.
3. Redefining the Value of "Essential Workers"
Defining the "human compassion" that AI cannot replace as the essence of social infrastructure, we will unearth highly motivated talent lying dormant within the community.
■ Specific Deployments at Saitama Sales Office & Metropolitan First Center
- Posting "Moving Job Postings": Posting special stickers with QR codes that provide instant access to the recruitment site on the backs and sides of delivery trucks running daily throughout the metropolitan area, centered on Saitama City. Through daily operations, we visualize our identity as a "company supporting local welfare facilities" and make direct appeals along residents' daily routes.
- Community-based Recruitment PR: Proposing careers as "food heroes working locally" to residents familiar with the delivery areas. Emphasizing the efficient work environment and health management track record realized through hub separation, delivering the message of a "rewarding workplace" in an era of driver recruitment difficulties.
- Collaboration with Welfare Facilities: Broadcasting a work environment where one can experience the reward of "supporting someone's dining table" through familiar relationships with nutritionists and cooks at elderly facilities, nursery facilities, and hospitals where deliveries are made.
- Opening Doors to Inexperienced Individuals: Starting with a standard driver's license (AT limited permitted) is possible, with a fully equipped support system for acquiring a semi-medium vehicle license. Supporting transitions from other industries with stable treatment starting from a monthly salary of 300,000 yen in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
