[Local Talent] Trademark Registration Completed and Full-Scale Launch for 'Jimo-crew,' a Region-Specific Staffing Service for the Greater Tokyo Area

Musashi Logistics Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ota-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Jin Sawada) is pleased to announce the completion of trademark registration for 'Jimo-crew,' a region-specific local staffing service. Simultaneously, the company has begun the full-scale rollout of Jimo-crew as a new recruitment infrastructure to resolve chronic labor shortages for businesses.

A New Choice for Labor-Shortage Sites: 'Local Talent' The logistics, manufacturing, retail, and service industries continue to face chronic labor shortages. In recent years, companies have increasingly struggled with issues such as getting no applications despite posting ads, low employee retention after hiring, and mismatches even when using staffing agencies.

One fundamental cause of these issues is long commute distances and recruitment that ignores regional characteristics.

'Jimo-crew' was born to address these issues directly, connecting 'people who want to work locally' with 'companies that want to hire locally' as a region-specific staffing service.

What is 'Jimo-crew'? Jimo-crew is a service that achieves high retention rates through a unique matching design centered on the axis of work location and place of residence.

Main Features: - Improved retention through local recruitment - Speed dispatch with same-day response capability - Ongoing support by dedicated regional coordinators - Reduction of recruitment costs by not relying solely on job ads - Flexible staffing proposals tailored to site challenges

We support solving real-world challenges such as sudden vacancies, peak seasons, and the launch of new bases for a wide range of roles including warehouse work, delivery, manufacturing, forklifts, and administration.

Strengthening Trust and Brand Value through Trademark Registration Jimo-crew is now officially trademarked, clarifying the uniqueness, reliability, and continuity of the service. This enhances our brand value as a community-based staffing service and strengthens our system as a trusted choice for both companies and job seekers.

Future Outlook Moving forward, we plan to expand our service area centered on the Kanto region and aim for nationwide deployment of Jimo-crew as an infrastructure that changes the 'recruitment norm' for companies struggling with labor shortages.
