Get to Know YOKOREI
YOKOREI has positioned our Refrigerated Warehousing Business and Food Sales Business as our core businesses and works to build trust by contributing to the stable supply of safe and reliable food in both Japan and overseas.
Our Refrigerated Warehousing Business can provide a high-level response to a wide variety of low-temperature logistics needs, providing high-quality service that covers not only storage, but also a variety of logistics processes, including customs clearance and delivery. Our Food Sales Business offers strong procurement capabilities that leverage the company's networks to meet the need for products in both Japan and overseas with precision.
YOKOREI's refrigerated warehouses have a combined storage capacity of over one million tons in both Japan and overseas, which allows us to maintain a position at the very top of the industry.
As part of our growth strategy, we are actively expanding facilities in key areas in Japan and overseas. In our facilities, we are installing cutting-edge equipment and functions to meet the facility's diverse needs. Sites nationwide are linked by regional blocks to achieve a more efficient and flexible logistics system. In addition, we are actively working on Business Continuity Plan (BCP) measures and have established a system that enables stable business operations even in the event of a disaster.
We are also actively working to reduce our environmental impact by installing solar power generation systems and promoting the use of natural refrigerants in our existing logistics centers.
Three Types of Refrigerated Warehouse to Meet a Wide Range of Diverse Food Storage and Logistics Needs
Dockside
We have facilities at major trading ports throughout Japan that can accommodate large-sized tankers, providing high-quality storage and speedy customs clearance services centered on imports of food products and ingredients.
Logistics Centers
Our logistics centers located near major highway interchanges store products for convenience stores, restaurant chains, and other businesses that require supplies to arrive in a timely manner.
Production Areas
Ours storage facilities at major fishing ports and agricultural areas throughout Japan provide storage in proper temperature ranges for freshly caught marine products and harvested agricultural produce.
YOKOREI's strength in the food sales business is our procurement capabilities, which precisely meet the diverse needs for products from both Japan and around the world.
We handle a wide range of agricultural, livestock, and marine products, and are engaged in the procurement and sale of foodstuffs in five different business approaches, each specializing in a different field.
A Procurement Network that Stretches Across Japan
1. Domestic Production Area Business Dept.
Production area sales offices, located in major marine product production areas, work closely with local producers, fishing ports, and farms to ensure stable procurement and supply of high-quality products by being involved in all stages of the production, purchase, quality control and sales process.
2. Overseas Business Dept.
In cooperation with the Domestic Production Area Business Dept., we purchase food materials directly, freeze them, and sell them overseas, as well as importing and selling marine products purchased and processed overseas, thereby expanding our global business in both directions.
3. Consumption Area Sales Business Dept.
A consumption area sales office is a sales office located in a major region where food is actually consumed. We provide a timely supply of whole foods and food material for processing and finished products to meet the needs of food product manufacturers and wholesalers.
4. Meat Business Dept.
The Meat Business Dept. procures domestic and foreign livestock products and promotes sales to a wide range of customers, including domestic manufacturers, processors, and mass retailers. In addition to imported products, we also actively sell domestic livestock products, and take pride in our detailed response to customer needs.
5. Hokkaido Business Dept.
We purchase and sell Hokkaido marine products (scallops, fall salmon, etc.) and agricultural products (potatoes, corn, edamame, etc.) in close contact with the production areas.
