Container ship congestion on the U.S. West Coast has become an increasingly serious problem in recent years. Inventory control and production lines have also been affected by production disruptions due to semiconductor shortages.

To improve this situation, NX USA has established the new warehouse in San Antonio capable of providing just-in-time delivery in accordance with customers’ production line plans. By managing warehouse shipping and receiving in synchronization with production lines, the new facility can optimize factory inventory and assist customers in their plans to boost production by creating free space in their factories. The warehouse is equipped with electric forklifts and fully LED interior lighting, creating an eco-friendly and safe environment.

Going forward, the NX Group will continue using its networks and functions to further expand services that meet the increasingly sophisticated and diversified logistics needs of its customers.
