Nippon Express (Taiwan) acquires bonded certification
  • Nippon Express (Taiwan) acquires bonded certification, the first Japanese logistics company to such accreditation for its own operational warehouse in Tainan City in southern Taiwan
  • The company also established new air-conditioned space and expands functions at Tainan Warehouse

Nippon Express (Taiwan) Co., Ltd. recently became the first Japanese logistics company to obtain bonded certification for its own operational warehouse in Tainan City in southern Taiwan, the company said in a statement.

At the same time the company, a member of Nippon Express Holdings, Inc, established a new air-conditioned space to meet growing demand for semiconductors.

Demand for semiconductors has expanded due to the rapid adoption of remote work driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, and a serious shortage of in-vehicle semiconductors in Taiwan, a major semiconductor supplier for the entire world, have prompted customers in semiconductor-related industries as well as other companies to expand their factories.

The Tainan Warehouse is located about 7km from the Tainan Science Park (part of the Southern Taiwan Science Park), home to numerous semiconductor-related companies, including the world’s leading foundry companies, and offers temperature-/humidity-controlled storage and management of semiconductor production materials, manufacturing equipment maintenance parts and other products requiring high-quality storage.

The bonded license also allows this warehouse to be used for non-resident inventory storage and import/export.

The Nippon Express Group said it will continue stepping up its efforts on behalf of the semiconductor industry, positioned as a priority industry in the Group’s Business Plan, and expanding its logistics functions globally to help customers develop their business activities.
