WHO WE ARE

Business Model

The word “transport” is part of the KONOIKE Transport corporate name, but we distinguish ourselves from other transportation companies through a unique business model in which we enter the customer value chain to take over operations. The essence of solving customer issues is not limited to the production processes of the manufacturing industry. We also contract services for hospitals and airports. As we expand business model across a wide range of fields, we continue to work with our customers to create value for society.

Business Model

Growth Strategy

The KONOIKE Group established a 2030 Vision of People, leveraging technology to reach for new heights. We create environments in which every person can hone his or her abilities and contribute their true value freely. At the same time, utilize a wide range of tangible and intangible assets, including expertise accumulated over many years at the front lines of the Group’s businesses, to improve and reform operations. Our employees grow through these processes. Supported by this cycle, we aim to achieve our 2030 Vision financial targets of ¥25 billion in operating income and 10% or higher ROE. We also formulated a medium-term management plan for the fiscal years March 2023 through March 2025, and we are making progress toward the 2030 Vision under this plan.

Growth Strategy
