Message from CEO
Since its founding in May of 1956, we have been making an effort in transportation services consistently based on motto that we should contribute to our clients. Thanks to clients’ trust and employees’ cooperation, the company have been developed. In September of 2006, we carried over a drastic organization change that the five companies belonging to Green Express Group were launched as Cooperative Green in order to save waste, at the same time, in order that we have been tackling reduction of cost by joint purchasing and vehicle saving operation. In future, I promise that we develop our logistics services making much account of “Safety, Security and Affection”. I really appreciate our clients’ continuing support and guidance.
Green Express Group CEO, Yukio Kobayashi
