As the average age of farmers rises and the number of farmers declines, it is becoming increasingly necessary to improve productivity by increasing the scale of farmland and making farming more efficient in order to maintain and develop agriculture. The same situation is occurring in Kujukuri Town. Toyota Tsusho is working to ensure a stable supply of rice for the food service and other industries through an integrated approach from breed development to sales of the high-yielding Shikiyutaka* rice variety, which produces more rice than standard varieties. Toyota Tsusho has been growing Shikiyutaka on a trial basis since this year with the cooperation of local farmers in Kujukuri Town, and has confirmed that it has a much higher yield than the Koshihikari variety that has been grown there until now. Based on these results, the following agreement was concluded with the aim of further collaboration between the two parties in areas such as agricultural production and the distribution of agricultural products, including the promotion of Shikiyutaka, in order to accelerate the agricultural development of Kujukuri Town.

The logistics industry in Japan is facing the challenges of driver shortages due to the overtime cap placed in 2024 and the need to reduce CO2 emissions. Amid this, last mile delivery, which plays a critical role as infrastructure as the final point of contact with end users, can contribute to solving these issues through optimal delivery using small mobility vehicles. In addition, due to the increasing demand for e-commerce (EC) and the trend toward smaller cargo packages, the market for last mile delivery is expected to continue to grow. LOGIQUEST provides a multi-delivery service in its last mile delivery business using light vehicles, motorbikes, and bicycles in collaboration with over 5,000 partner drivers. The large variety of products that the company handles includes pharmaceuticals such as vaccines, auto parts, and electronic parts. By combining Toyota Tsusho's logistics network, which is focused on the automotive industry, with LOGIQUEST's delivery network, the two companies will work to optimize logistics across a wide range of industries, including the Economy of Life.* In the future, the two companies will also contribute to carbon neutrality by utilizing small EVs and vehicles using renewable energy such as hydrogen, which are highly compatible with the last mile area, and by utilizing logistics DX to optimize transportation routes and cargo loading.
