NX South Asia & Oceania Pte. Ltd. (President: Katsuhito Kobayashi; hereinafter "NXSAO"), a group company of NIPPON EXPRESS HOLDINGS, INC.

The NX Group has positioned "establishing a presence in the Indian market" as one of its key priorities in realizing its long-term vision of becoming a "logistics company with a strong presence in the global market." The Indian Ocean Rim region, in particular, is a strategic market where continuous growth in logistics demand is expected, driven by the progress of international supply chain restructuring and the expansion of regional economies, while new business opportunities are emerging across diverse industries. On the other hand, the speed of market change is rapid, and the characteristics of commercial and logistics flows differ by country, region, and industry. Therefore, a system that integrates cross-regional market analysis and strategy formulation is essential to reliably capture these opportunities.

Against this backdrop, NXSAO opened the "Indian Ocean Rim Strategy Office" in October 2025 and proceeded with preparations for its full-scale operation. In February 2026, the office was fully launched with the appointment of specialized marketers to accurately respond to the diverse needs of Indian companies engaged in extensive business activities. The strategy office leads the analysis of market trends, the formulation of growth strategies, and the creation of new business opportunities, while the specialized marketers delve deeper into customer insights, enabling the provision of higher value-added logistics solutions. Through these initiatives, the company will promote the strengthening of trade lanes and the sophistication of logistics services in the Indian Ocean Rim region, contributing to the business growth of its customers.

The NX Group will continue to aim for further growth as a global logistics company by fusing its global network with local expertise and building a flexible system capable of responding immediately to changing market environments.
