TradeWaltz Inc. will join the Smart Logistics Expo to be held on January 19 – 21 while implementing the consideration of the SDGs, Life Below Water, into our exhibition activity.

TradeWaltz Inc. (headquarters: Chiyoda, Tokyo), which promotes the digital transformation of trade to all Japan in all sectors, will join the Smart Logistics Expo as part of one of our shareholder, Nissin Corporation’s, booth where we will actively promote the SDGs “Life Below Water.”

■ About the Smart Logistics Expo

                 The expo, hosted by RX Japan Ltd., is a specialty exhibition to showcase the digital transformation and automation of logistics. This is the first year being held and will exhibit cutting-edge technology and related information of logistic companies such as digital transformation of logistics, carbon neutrality, IoT/AI, automated warehouses, etc.

                 We introduced our system which visualizes the use of blockchains as part of our shareholder Nissin Corporation’s booth which was themed as “Visualization of International Logistics and Supply Chain.”

■ Considerations of SDGs at the exhibit

TradeWaltz Inc., which strives to contribute to SDGs such as the optimization of sea trade and reduction of carbon through “complete digitalization of trading.” We had two things in mind when joining the exhibition.

1) Zero distribution of paper documents

We live in a time when it is common, for both B2C and B2B products, to jump on the internet and search, compare, see reviews and comments, then think about buying a product. It is said that you are already known at the first point of direct contact. That is why, like this expo, we will not distribute printed material.

2) Include our thoughts towards the SDGs Life Below Water into our uniforms

As part of our uniform, we will have twisted scarfs, which were inspiration for the TradeWaltz Inc. logo.

These scarfs are made by a small fisheries company, Ozuka Suisan, located in Kagoshima, Japan, that we met last year. They use sea urchin to dye the color into the scarfs as part of their activity to protect the ecosystem of the ocean.(*1) We will to help them with exporting the scarfs in the future.

【Comment from people involved】

TradeWaltz Inc. Managing Director and Head of CEO’s Office: Satoru Someya

As we move towards a world of online exhibitions, we thought the meaning deeper when we are  approached by a shareholder to join an in-person exhibition, so we thought about what we really wanted to say while joining. We wanted to make the exhibit a place to convey our thoughts of “How do we want to change the world” which includes warm feelings and emotions. This led to our participation, including our exhibit and presentation content, to be based on “Participate with as much consideration for the environment as possible.” While taking full consideration towards SDGs, we will not only give demonstrations and presentations, but also have executives from the company be on the floor talking directly to Expo guests.
