One Page Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture, Representative Director: Shunki Kawai) launched 'Toramedia,' an information media specialized for female truck drivers, on May 13, 2026. This is the first initiative of its kind in Japan as a specialized media dedicated to female truck drivers (※1). Against the backdrop of a chronic shortage of personnel in the logistics industry and the current situation where the female ratio remains a mere 3.5% (※2), the company aims to revitalize the industry through information dissemination from a private sector perspective. With approximately 200 specialized articles available at the time of launch, 'Toramedia' will broadly disseminate information not only to active female drivers but also to women interested in the truck driver profession, thereby enhancing industry recognition and encouraging new entries.

Background: Challenges in the Logistics Industry and the Role of 'Toramedia'
The Japanese logistics industry is facing a severe shortage of personnel, epitomized by the '2024 problem.' According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' Labor Force Survey (2023), the proportion of women engaged in transportation and machine operation in the road freight transport industry remains only about 3.5%. Coupled with the aging of drivers and a decrease in young entrants, maintaining the overall transport capacity of the industry has become difficult.
In response to these challenges, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism designated 2014 as the 'First Year of Securing and Developing Truck Driver Talent' and has been promoting the 'Tora-Girl Promotion Project' to encourage the active participation of female drivers.
'Toramedia' responds to these societal trends and aims to contribute to the overall revitalization of the industry by strengthening information dissemination to female drivers from a private sector standpoint.

Toramedia's Explanation Page
1. Launching with approximately 200 specialized articles from a female driver's perspective
It comprehensively provides information useful not only for active female drivers but also for women aspiring to become drivers, covering topics from how to obtain a license, career paths for each vehicle type, balancing childcare and housework, workplace environments, to the latest industry trends.
2. Visualizing 'Work Style Options'
It explains the differences in work styles such as long-distance, medium-distance, short-distance, and home delivery, as well as working arrangements tailored to different life stages, in an easy-to-understand manner from the perspective of those involved, even for inexperienced individuals.
3. Positive Information Dissemination to the Industry
Aiming to refresh the image of the trucking industry, which is often called '3K' (Kitsui, Kitanai, Kiken - tough, dirty, dangerous), it will continuously introduce initiatives of companies where women are active, from explanations of terminology to the latest examples of improved working environments.
Future Developments
By providing comprehensive support from information dissemination to job matching, we will promote the entry of new female drivers and contribute to solving the industry's personnel shortage.
Additionally, 'Toramedia' will periodically update its 'List of Featured Companies' introducing the initiatives of transport companies where female drivers are active. Companies wishing to be featured or those willing to cooperate for interviews are requested to contact the inquiry desk below.
Representative's Comment
As the '2024 problem' in logistics intensifies, we are convinced that 'the active participation of female drivers will change the future of the industry.' As an official Indeed agency with long experience in recruitment support and a company certified with 'Erboshi Certification (3 stars)' for promoting women's active participation, we understand both the appeal and challenges of the industry. Toramedia aims to not only deliver the voices of active female drivers but also to provide a 'catalyst for taking the first step' for women who want to take on this challenge. We will contribute to changing the industry's perception through the power of information and solving the social issue of personnel shortages.
