In the industrial supply chain, sample orders hold decisive value because they determine product testing and approval before large-scale production. When facing an urgent shipment request, manufacturers rely on logistics partners capable of North-South freight services in Vietnam with speed, visibility, and reliability. Yoshino Denka Kogyo Vietnam (YDK) encountered such a challenge with a time-critical cargo shipment that had to be completed within 48 hours.

Yoshino Denka Kogyo and the challenge of urgent shipment

Yoshino Denka Kogyo Vietnam is a wholly Japanese-owned enterprise specializing in producing and machining high-precision components and parts. The company supplies products to the automotive, engineering, and supporting industries. Guided by the Quality Technical Excellence Delivery principle, YDK operates with highly skilled engineers and international-standard facilities, making it a trusted partner of leading corporations in Vietnam and across the region.

In early August 2025, YDK received an urgent request from an automotive partner to deliver a heavy sample shipment for testing. The cargo originated at Plant X3 in Hai Phong and had to reach VSIP Industrial Park in Binh Duong within 48 hours. Although modest in volume, the shipment carried decisive value for quality approval, requiring speed and integrity throughout the North-South freight route.

YDK faced two key challenges:

  • A strict 48-hour delivery timeline
  • Verified cargo condition and traceability throughout the transportation process

Any delay or mishandling could disrupt the testing schedule, create additional costs, and affect long-term cooperation with the partner.

PCS Logistics solution for urgent industrial shipment

With years of collaboration with YDK, PCS Logistics, a specialist in industrial park logistics solutions, was entrusted with the task. The emergency delivery plan focused on three key actions:

  • Agile coordination: The cargo was picked up directly at Plant X3 in Hai Phong and routed through the PCS Operations Center in Hanoi to connect with the same-day flight to Ho Chi Minh City. Priority ground delivery to Binh Duong was then executed, ensuring the shipment stayed within the 48-hour timeline.
  • Standardized packaging and security: The cargo was sealed and reinforced following PCS handling standards, inspected before dispatch, and documented with photos and shipment records as evidence of condition
  • Process-driven operations: A detailed checklist covered inspection, sealin,g route logging ETD, ETA updates, and delivery confirmation with signed proof. Comprehensive documentation minimized handling time at the destination while ensuring transparency and visibility across the supply chain logistics process.

Overcoming challenges and reinforcing brand trust

PCS Logistics' strict process control delivered the YDK shipment to VSIP Industrial Park in Binh Duong in only 47 hours, earlier than the committed timeline. PCS not only achieved on-time performance in urgent shipments but also provided YDK with a complete record, including signed delivery notes, photos, and cargo logs. This allowed YDK to quickly validate with its partner, accelerate the testing approval, avoid unnecessary costs, and maintain supply chain continuity.

The YDK case demonstrates that choosing the right logistics partner within the industrial supply chain can turn potential risks into reliable outcomes. YDK representatives highly valued PCS Logistics' professionalism and responsibility in safeguarding testing timelines and ensuring production continuity.
