Message from the President

Through the flow of people and goods,
we contribute to the growth of local industry and the economy,
and to the advancement of culture.
Since our founding in 1958, Setouchi Rikuun has developed its logistics business under the motto "Safe, Reliable, Careful, and Speedy."

Since our founding, we have been blessed and supported by many customers, which has allowed us to expand our network across Japan. We believe this is thanks to the encounters and experiences born from generating ideas and taking on new challenges.

In 2021, we opened a large-scale Vehicle Maintenance Service Center, further strengthening the safety management of our own fleet. With 307 vehicles and a network of 8 locations nationwide, we respond to every transport need of our customers.

That is precisely why we value our people and are committed to developing human resources. Going forward, we will continue to be a company that contributes to the local community through logistics and keeps meeting the expectations of our customers.
President & CEO Toshitsugu Kusunoki
