Pursuing a vision of "a world where non-desk workers take the lead through the power of technology", X Mile aims to solve labor shortages and improve labor productivity in non-desk industries and transform the way people work.

X Mile is striving to resolve a wide range of issues in non-desk industries through such services as "X Work" ("Cross Work"), an HR platform business specializing in the logistics, construction, and manufacturing domains, and "Logipoke," an operational efficiency and management support cloud service business specialized for the logistics industry,.

■Investment background and objectives

The NX Group considers labor shortages to be one of the most important social issues confronting the logistics business, and it has taken a variety of initiatives to address this issue, among them being the introduction of automation, DX, and other technologies. The Group is seeking through this investment to support the business growth of X Mile, which is working to resolve the social issue of labor/driver shortages via its staffing and cloud service solutions, and to assist in creating approaches for appropriately evaluating human resources and in improving engagement by clarifying the career paths of drivers through the development of a career visualization and evaluation system.

■Initiatives

• Securing human resources by utilizing "X Work," a specialized driver recruiting service

  
  

  The shortage of drivers is a social issue shared across the logistics industry, and the situation is expected to become even more dire as the population ages further. X Mile and the NX Group will be working together to attract talent to the logistics industry.
