Japan Post to offer logistics service to Eastern Europe

Japan Post plans to start delivering automotive and electronic parts to Eastern Europe later this year utilising the network of La Poste’s German affiliate DPD, Japanese media reported.

The mail and parcel delivery service unit of Japan Post Holdings, Japan Post Service, plans distribution services to Japanese companies’ plants in Eastern Europe starting with services to Hungary next month. Delivery services to Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia will follow next year, according to Jiji Press. This comes as an increasing number of Japanese companies are setting up production bases in the region.

In July, La Poste and Japan Post signed an agreement for an international logistics partnership effective until 2011. It was reported that the in-depth cooperation focuses on mutual distribution of export shipments in Europe and Japan and that the two national postal operators planned to offer distribution services between Japan and Europe using the networks of their respective logistics units.
