Ode to logistics expertise

[ October 28, 2024   //   ]

Nippon Express Holding’s Cargo-partner arm is providing logistics services to exhibitors at Expo 2025 world fair in Osaka, including transport of a 16.5-meter-tall wooden sculpture which will serve as the centerpiece of the Austrian Pavilion.

The structure symbolizes the harmony between tradition and innovation, reflecting Austria’s rich cultural heritage and advanced wood construction techniques. The wooden loop represents the first bars of Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy”.

From November, it will be carefully disassembled, the parts catalogued and packed into ten sea freight containers and shipped from Austria to Japan.

The parts will need to be delivered in a specific sequence due to space constraints at the venue.
