Kamigumi Co., Ltd. celebrates its 150th anniversary this year.

Since its birth in 1867 together with the opening of the Port of Kobe, Kamigumi has played a role in forming Japan's logistics infrastructure as a port-based integrated logistics provider, alongside the development of the Port of Kobe and other ports in Japan. For reaching the milestone of its 150th anniversary, Kamigumi is deeply indebted to the patronage and support it has received from customers, partner companies, employees, shareholders and various other stakeholders.

As a port and harbor expert, Kamigumi will continue to work toward becoming an integrated logistics provider that brings forth new global logistics.

Kamigumi hereby announces that recently, as part of its 150th anniversary project, it has established a commemorative logo as well as launched a special website commemorating 150 years since its founding.

1. Logo Commemorating Kamigumi's 150th Anniversary

Design Concept

With the ocean and waves as its design motif and the number "150" rising above both, this logo expresses the 150-year history of Kamigumi, including its port origins. The red "0" within the number expresses the "rising sun," signifying the "hope" held by the company as the curtain rises on the next page of its history.

Kamigumi will utilize this anniversary logo on various occasions during this fiscal year (April 2017 - March 2018), which it has established as its 150th-anniversary period.
