– Seamless integration of structured and unstructured trade data
– Streamlined management of shipping and customs documentation
– Enhanced operational efficiency in global trade processes
FUJIFILM Business Innovation, a pioneer in trade document digitisation since Japan’s first electronic trade document storage implementation in 2011, sees the partnership as strategic to its enterprise solutions portfolio. “We’re witnessing a transformation in how businesses handle trade documentation,” said Motoki Takizawa, General Manager of the Business Solutions Division at FUJIFILM Business Innovation. “This collaboration with ZENPORT enables us to offer a one-stop solution that connects all aspects of our customers’ trade operations while ensuring regulatory compliance.”
The partnership highlights the growing trend of collaboration between established corporations and technology innovators in Japan’s evolving digital landscape.
