TA-Q-BIN Yamato, a leading parcel delivery service of Japan, has recently introduced a baggage delivery system that can deliver baggage from Japan to Hong Kong, Taiwan and Shanghai in just two days.

Until now, only documents were delivered within two days.

According to the company, this is just a prelude to their "All Asian Door-to-Door Network".

Known to deliver parcels 365 days a year on the next day of booking in the country, the 'baggage delivery system' of TA-Q-BIN Yamato will help the customers to get their luggage fast.

This became possible because of the opening of 24 hours custom clearance facilities at the Okinawa airport, and cooperation with 'All Nippon Airway' (ANA). Until now the baggage used to take three to four days to get delivered.

 

ANA and TA-Q-BIN Yamato in collaboration with Okinawa prefecture have been trying to make Okinawa as an international distribution hub since 2009.

Despite the stagnation of the world economy due to the global recession in 2009, the plan didn't get shelved.
