1. Background of Participation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TOHO HOLDINGS is a corporate group active in the medical, nursing and healthcare fields, engaged in pharmaceutical wholesaling, dispensing pharmacy, manufacturing and sales of pharmaceuticals, and development and provision of customer support systems under the corporate slogan \u201cTotal Commitment to Good Health\u201d. TOHO HOLDINGS also proactively promotes initiatives for regional medical collaboration, nursing and home care.
\nThe healthcare environment in Japan is facing structural challenges that are difficult for any single company to solve alone. These include the increasing complexity of demand driven by a declining birthrate, an aging population, and the expansion of home and community-based healthcare. Furthermore, the sector faces a shortage of human resources, regional maldistribution, and tightening logistics and delivery capacity\u2014symbolized by the “2024 Problem in Logistics”\u2014as well as the need to ensure stable supply during disasters and reduce environmental impact.
\nCollabo CREATE is an enterprise formed by companies united under the shared philosophy of “Contributing to society,” with the goal of transcending traditional business boundaries to address these challenges. We believe that endorsing Collabo CREATE\u2019s vision of a “Development of a Healthcare Logistics Business to Address Social Challenges” and building a sustainable medical supply chain together with partners from various industries will lead to the realization of our Group\u2019s social mission.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
