The NYK Group established the NYK Group–JPF Joint Aid Supplies Transportation Projects with Japan Platform (JPF)3 in 2004 to support the quick recovery of areas impacted by disasters, and free ocean transport has since been arranged based on requests by JPF. In the hopes of aiding victims of disasters through our supportive action, NYK will continue its efforts to be proactively involved in contributing to society as a good corporate citizen.
