On August 7, Nippon Express carried out cargo handling operations for the "MSC QINGDAO F," a Sunrise Service vessel of Mediterranean Shipping Company SA (MSC), the world's largest container shipping company, which made its first port call at Hibiki Port in Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

This port call was not a scheduled one but an unscheduled one. Nippon Express had a track record of acting as a ship agent for other shipping companies and handling cargo handling at Hibiki Port, and possessed the necessary permits and facilities, so it was able to handle the unscheduled port call smoothly.
In recent years, Hibiki Port has become increasingly important as an international logistics hub in northern Kyushu, playing a role in the collection and distribution of diverse cargo from both domestic and international sources.
Nippon Express provides comprehensive international logistics services, including ship agency services, vessel cargo handling, customs clearance, and warehousing. Leveraging these capabilities, the company plans to actively utilize ports.
