The NX Group has positioned forwarding as one of its core businesses in the “NX Group Management Plan 2023 – Dynamic Growth” and has accordingly been working to expand its handling of ocean cargo as the base cargo for its forwarding business.

In 2020, Nippon Express set up a Global NVOCC (*) Center (“GNC”) in Japan to select shipping companies, centralize purchasing, develop price-competitive NVOCC products, and improve and support services. To further enhance these functions and expand cargo-handling capabilities, the GNC’s functions were transferred to multicultural Singapore, home to a diverse pool of human resources skilled in ocean freight operations, and the new company NGO opened for business on May 23.

(*) NVOCC: Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier
