In Japan, almost every company in the retail logistics sector uses pallets from Japan Pallet Rental. The company is working with IBM Services to integrate Internet of Things (IoT) technology into its operations. It is also building a collaboration platform based on the IBM Blockchain Platform to promote data sharing among players in the supply chain. The company believes that its efforts at reducing paper-based transactions and sharing data across the industry will contribute to helping Japan address the labor shortage and will save time and money within the Japanese logistics sector.

“The reason why I chose the IBM solution for our platform was because IBM was the only vendor who clearly stated that data belongs to the owner,” explains Naomi Kano, Chief Executive Officer, Japan Pallet Rental.
