YAMATO TRANSPORT EUROPE BV - LONDON BRANCH

Company Description

History
Starting off in 1919 with 4 vehicles and 17 employees, Yamato Transport was offered a contract for distributing goods for Japan's largest department store chain company Mitsukoshi in 1923. This contract, growing every year and the gaining of new contracts, enabled Yamato Transport to set up a national transport network.
After the economic boom in the sixties and the recession in the seventies, Yamato Transport made the right and daring decision to free themselves of the contracts and convert their Takkyubin delivery system into a door-to-door delivery network for individual clients and consumers. From this point on the company grew and introduced other services like home-moving and refrigerated transport.
The black cat logo, in 1976 developed by the founder Mr. Yasuomi Ogura himself, has become the national symbol for transport in Japan and will be all over the world. In the eighties Yamato Transport established networks in South-East Asia, the U. S. A. and Europe, which were further greatly expanded when cooperation was sought with the US company UPS.
Today you will find the black cat at your service right on the spot where you need it. After 82 years it still stands for care and reliability.
