3.11 Introduction of our company's activities during the Great East Japan Earthquake and future challenges.
Our company conducted support activities for the reconstruction of Iwate Prefecture for about three months starting from March 23, at the request of the Cabinet Office immediately after the Great East Japan Earthquake. We provided assistance in the delivery of kerosene, light oil, and heavy oil to coastal municipalities in Iwate Prefecture, as well as fuel delivery support for large corporations, including kerosene, light oil, heavy oil, and gasoline, along with other reconstruction support activities. We received a letter of appreciation for our support, and the local community expressed their deep gratitude. **[Realization of the Necessity for BCP Measures]** - Oil has been reaffirmed as the most important energy source for future recovery and reconstruction. - It is necessary to maintain tank trucks and drums for the delivery of petroleum products during normal times to be used as fuel for emergency generators. - Considering emergencies, it is essential to store small amounts of petroleum fuel from normal times. - Large-scale oil tanks are often located in coastal areas, which have high disaster risks, making inland storage safer. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.*

Company information
Since its establishment in 1988, the Shuwa Group has been striving, albeit modestly, to reform the logistics of kerosene to provide our customers with "better products, at lower prices, and more conveniently." Through our "door-to-door sales method," we have expanded our sales area by delivering kerosene directly to customers' doorsteps. With the rapid increase in kerosene handling volume, we have received cooperation from various suppliers, allowing us to efficiently deliver large quantities using our own large tank trucks. The customers supporting our door-to-door sales "Shuwa" have reached approximately one million households, primarily in our founding region of Kansai, as well as in Tokai, Kyushu, and Tohoku, solidifying our position as the top seller in kerosene retail in Japan.
