Introduction of shippers to improve loading efficiency
Transportation company
The company’s main focus on e-commerce site projects has led to a rapid shift to a high-mix, low-volume production. The shortage of drivers became more serious, and the situation was getting worse. By combining the products of our company and peripheral partner companies, we were able to achieve a mixed load delivery system. This has successfully improved the loading efficiency.
■Customer’s voice
The demand for Corona has led to a rapid increase in small-lot deliveries, and the loading rate has dropped considerably. Logitec introduced us to other shippers in the same area and helped us adjust shipping packaging, so we were able to considerably improve our transportation efficiency.
Shipping agent service
Tariff Review Reduces Cost by 1,500,000 yen for 50,000 Shipments
In response to the challenge of reducing transportation costs, the company proposed a less expensive-than-usual tariff by utilizing partner companies. This significantly reduced transportation costs, which had been a hurdle to securing profit margins. The client was able to secure profits that far exceeded its initial expectations.
■Customer’s Voice
“We needed to improve costs because transportation costs were putting pressure on profits due to an increase in the number of shipments. We received several proposals from Logitech that varied in scale and service level, and they were able to arrange a transportation partner that matched our needs. They also helped us with securing warehouse space, which was very helpful.
Solving the problem of lack of sales know-how
Work contracting company
The Corona Shock occurred while the company was highly dependent on its existing customers. The company was unable to develop new customers, and the volume of work declined. The number of potential orders increased by sharing, practicing, and following up on the sales methods we recommended. As a result, a record number of new orders were received.
■Customer’s Voice
“Originally, we were relying on major companies for orders, so we lacked both the know-how and the number of salespeople. With the help of Logitech’s joint proposals and sales accompaniment, we were able to win new orders, and we were also able to take on joint orders for projects that we could not take on within our capacity, which pleased our customers.”
Setup work for campaign merchandise
Emergency order for delivery of 5,000 sets received in two days
A prime contractor requested a spot order for product setup, but the company was struggling to respond due to a lack of human resources and space. We introduced a partner warehouse and work company. The client successfully delivered 5,000 sets in two days.
■Customer’s Voice
“I must confess that we were quite troubled by the shipping instructions we received on short notice, as it was difficult to handle them through our normal routes. Despite the urgency of the situation, you were able to quickly create a working system with outside facilities so we didn’t have to inconvenience our prime contractor.”
Sorting of major e-commerce site products by direction
1,250,000 EC products sorted and handled in 2 weeks
A major e-commerce site found that its own warehouse could not handle the volume of cargo due to periodic sales. Therefore, the company secured personnel to handle the sorting work. The project was fulfilled by utilizing our warehouse, and 1,250,000 items were sorted in two weeks. The client has continued to use our warehouse for sorting during sales periods since then.
■Customer’s Voice
When the sale went well and the normal shipping capacity was expected to overflow, we immediately contacted our existing partners, but they were all oversubscribed. Logitech is an indispensable partner for us during the busy season because they respond immediately to our spot work and organize their system according to our volume.”
Joint use of warehouse space
Warehouse company
A warehouse company was about to open a new 3,000 tsubo warehouse, but the warehouse was vacant due to the withdrawal of a prospective shipper from the contract. By strengthening order-taking activities through comprehensive sales collaboration with the warehouse lessor, the lead time to secure a customer was drastically reduced. The warehouse achieved an 80% occupancy rate in the third month after opening.
■Customer’s Voice
We had asked Logitec for spot cargo in the past, so when we consulted with them about available space this time, we had high hopes that it might be possible. They have a wealth of information on projects, so orders go smoothly, and with a combination of long-term and short-term shippers, we are able to make use of the space without letting it go unused.
Introduction of contractors for small lot projects
Distribution processing company F
Company F had a problem finding a contractor for a small-lot project.

Customer Comments
We were at a standstill when we had to make our final presentation to the shippers, because we were faced with the challenge of not being able to guarantee productivity due to a labor shortage.

Now that we have the right staffing, we are able to expand our business.”

Company Philosophy
A new form of third-party logistics (3PL), revolutionized by HR and technology.
When human resource management merges with digital transformation (DX), logistics will enter into a new era. Logistics that is not just warehousing or transportation, but rather something that can only be handled by a third party. LOGITECH will be the catalyst to connect shippers, logistics companies, and HR firms, advancing 3PL to the next stage.
Message from the Representative
Creating a new form of 3PL provider to meet the growing needs of the logistics industry
In the process of founding and expanding BEITRE CO., LTD., I was struck afresh by the potential that an HR services company can offer. Initially, BEITRE focused on one-off jobs such as event work, moving, and short-term office work. But then we encountered the logistics industry's use of human resources to manage large flows by coordinating temporary workers, and we were able to expand the business as e-commerce needs grew. However, the areas in which human resource management (such as staffing and recruitment) can play a role in the logistics industry are limited to areas such as distribution processing and inspection, which are but a small part of the entire process. Knowing the huge future potential of the logistics industry, we searched for ways to jumpstart our business model. What we noticed was that most of the 3PL providers were "parties" in the industry, such as warehousing and transportation providers, and were not third parties in the strictest sense. We are a pure third party that provides services to the logistics industry from our background in the HR field. Our services, such as outsourcing services that utilize our ability to supply a workforce and business matchmaking between shippers and warehouse owners that utilizes our matchmaking expertise, are new conveniences that we can offer because we come from outside of the industry. Furthermore, by adding our employment, labor, and time and attendance-related HR management services, as well as operational support with material handling and warehouse management tools useful for warehouse operations, we will create a new form of 3PL provider to meet the growing the needs of the logistics industry.
