Usage of DX/AI
Utilizing Advanced Technologies to Solve Challenges and Transform the Industry with Our Wholesaler Strengths
Amidst the diversification of values and acceleration of social changes, correctly interpreting the future and devising appropriate strategies is becoming increasingly crucial. As a function to accelerate DX, our company utilizes AI and other technologies to identify challenges and provide solutions.
Utilizing Big Data to Eliminate Waste, Unevenness, and Overburden in the Distribution Industry
Various processes within the distribution industry still harbor significant waste, unevenness, and overburden. To address these issues, it will be essential to leverage digital technology for information gathering. Our company is advancing efforts to visualize current store conditions using AI, based on big data such as ID-POS (data that identifies who bought what and when), store ordering and inventory data, as well as camera footage and market trend data.

Identifying Challenges and Proposing Specific Actions
Analyzing the results and identifying challenges to propose improvements is also part of our mission. We assist retailers in increasing sales by implementing specific actions such as optimizing orders to reduce waste and improving store efficiency. Additionally, we are committed to leveraging advanced technology, such as customized digital promotions tailored to individual customers, as part of our solutions.

Information Wholesaling
A new form of wholesaling for distributing not only products but also information

Acting as an intermediary between manufacturers and retailers, wholesalers transport goods that ultimately reach consumers. NIPPON ACCESS has fulfilled this role over many years. However, with the progress of technological innovation, the role of information in society has grown significantly. In response, our company has developed mechanisms not only for transporting goods but also for distributing information among manufacturers, retailers, and consumers—a concept we refer to as information wholesaling. As a concrete initiative, we develop and provide services through our wholly-owned subsidiary, D&S Solutions. (For more details, please refer to the D&S Solutions website.)
