At KEEP-LAB., we view our efforts in the domestic market as the first step toward delivering unprecedented innovation in logistics and food preservation. By leveraging a fresh perspective and agile execution, we aim to provide high value-added logistics infrastructure across Japan.
Our mission is to drive transformative change across Japan’s food industry—from primary production to processing and distribution—and the logistics sector, contributing to both the reduction of food loss and the improvement of industry profitability.
As a startup, we bring a fresh perspective and a challenger’s mindset to the food preservation and logistics issues facing both Japan and the global market, addressing these challenges head-on.
By leveraging voltage-applied refrigeration technology, advanced rapid-freezing systems, thermal storage materials, and insulated transport boxes, we aim to innovate domestic logistics networks and deliver not only solutions to the “2024 logistics issue,” but also sustainable food preservation and highly efficient logistics operations.
Through this business, we seek to maximize the value of Japan’s food culture while creating new possibilities for consumers, producers, and logistics companies alike.
Building on successful case studies in Japan, we also aim to expand into overseas markets.

ーCurrent Challenges and Issues Facing the Food Marketー
ーCurrent Challenges and Issues Facing the Food Marketー
Logistics and Supply Chain Challenges
In some regions, establishing a stable logistics framework and improving supply chain efficiency remain challenging, highlighting the need to strengthen supply chain management and introduce advanced logistics management systems.
Impact of Climate Change and Severe Weather
The supply and pricing of agricultural products are heavily influenced by the seasons and weather conditions. During periods of unfavorable weather and seasonal transitions, procurement becomes more difficult and prices tend to rise sharply.
Logistics and Supply Chain Challenges
Competition with global companies and online marketplaces is intensifying, making price competition increasingly severe. To differentiate effectively, it is essential to offer high-value-added products and services while strengthening brand equity.
Marketing & Branding
There is a lack of effective marketing strategies to strengthen the brand value of regional trading companies, making it difficult to differentiate from other regions and build a strong brand identity.

ーChallenges Facing Food Logisticsー
ーChallenges Facing Food Logisticsー
In the logistics industry, two primary models dominate: chilled logistics for fresh foods and frozen logistics for frozen products. However, both of these logistics models present the following challenges.
In the logistics industry, two primary models dominate: chilled logistics for fresh foods and frozen logistics for frozen products. However, both of these logistics models present the following challenges.
Chilled Logistics
It is difficult to maintain freshness throughout the logistics process, making quality deterioration and food loss more likely. Inadequate temperature control during transportation can also lead to product complaints.
Frozen Logistics
The deterioration in quality caused by freezing, as well as the loss of freshness after thawing, remains a significant issue. In addition, operating costly freezing equipment and refrigerated vehicles requires substantial energy, leading to rising energy costs. The risk of condensation is also a key challenge.
