Major Earthquake Risk Associated with Concentration in the Chubu Region

「In view of concerns that major earthquakes such as Tokai, Tonankai, directly beneath the capital, directly beneath the Chubu metropolitan area and directly beneath the Kinki metropolitan area earthquakes may occur in the near future, the Group has established initial-response manuals for disasters, strengthened the earthquake resistance of warehouses and buildings, introduced emergency power-generation equipment, enhanced its damage-reporting system for disasters and seeks to raise employee awareness and mitigate damage through disaster-preparedness drills. It is also systematically implementing a scrap-and-build program for logistics facilities.」

「Continued development of the BCP structure to ensure the sustainable and stable provision of logistics services, which constitute social infrastructure.」

「We will enhance disaster preparedness and business continuity planning (BCP) to provide logistics services, a social infrastructure, on a stable basis. We will comprehensively rebuild our initial-response and BCP framework to ensure the sustainable and stable provision of logistics services, a social infrastructure.」

「As demand for drinking water and disaster-preparedness products surged following the issuance of the Nankai Trough Earthquake Extra Information, sales benefited from efforts to maintain stable operations at consumer-goods logistics centers as essential workers.」

「In particular, because the Group's management resources, including logistics facilities such as warehouses, are concentrated in the Chubu, Kanto and Kansai regions, natural disasters such as earthquakes occurring in these areas could have a significant impact on the operation of the Company.」

「Because the Group's management resources are concentrated in the Chubu region, damage from a major earthquake, particularly a Nankai Trough megathrust earthquake, is a concern. We have therefore established disaster-preparedness plans and initial-response manuals for earthquakes, seek to raise employee awareness and mitigate damage, and are progressively implementing a scrap-and-build program.」

We have also entered into earthquake derivative contracts to cover losses to buildings, equipment and other assets in the event of an earthquake.」
