Toyota Material Handling Europe is the Official Partner for material handling equipment at the Olympic & Paralympic Games Paris 2024. Working in collaboration with Toyota Motor the promise is to ensure seamless, effortless, and flexible mobility for all, including both people and goods. A key objective is to ensure that Toyota's activities at the event support the carbon emission target of the Paris 2024 Games. Our aim is to deliver mobility to the Olympic & Paralympic Games in the same way that we deliver for our customers, and the way we deliver for you and other consumers worldwide.
Let’s take a moment to pay tribute to the sung and unsung heroes of the logistics industry, mostly ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Our #wedeliverforyou campaign captures the magic behind the scenes of the intralogistics world and provides an insight into the future of material handling. You call the shots, we make it happen.
Have you ever tried to estimate the number of online shopping transactions that take place every day? It’s reported that, on average, the world’s largest online retailer alone receives around 10 million orders every 24 hours – so considering the diverse range of items and the large number of other online suppliers available, you are looking at a huge number of transactions – and they all have one thing in common: every online click makes something move – namely the item that has been ordered, ready to be delivered to a customer, courtesy of the logistics industry.
Alongside the vast number of online orders there’s another significant reality: increasingly fast response times. Next-day or even same-day delivery is becoming more of a necessity than a luxury for many online shoppers. To accomplish this, the logistics industry today uses sophisticated end-to-end control systems that ensure exactly the right items are picked and correctly labelled for despatch, with a minimum delay.
We are a major player in the European logistics industry, with leading solutions for order picking. Solutions range from trucks that fully support humans selecting the required items up to fully automated solutions where the click of a purchase instantly triggers a robot to locate the chosen product and transport the item automatically into the delivery process.
In fact, Toyota Material Handling envisions future solutions that could enable customers to select a consolidated and fully automated delivery concept – check out A.I.TeamDelivery.
The logistics industry adapts to seasonal shifts and consumer preferences, ensuring that shelves are stocked with the right products at the right time. Managing changing demands requires effective traceability and real-time data analysis to minimise waste and meet consumer expectations. As a leading player in European logistics, we innovate alongside our partners, utilising technologies like robotic stock scanners and drones to optimise stock levels and supply chains. This ensures that consumers have the freedom to shape their daily experiences with a variety of choices.
The European logistics industry, with over 5 million workers, delivers essential goods daily, from groceries to medications and building materials. As a leading player in European logistics, we provide vital equipment and services, employing intelligent machinery and automation to meet consumer demands reliably.
Since 2015 Toyota has been the Worldwide Mobility partner of the Olympic & Paralympic Games. In 2024 the games move to Paris where we, for the first time, are the official partner for material handling equipment. This fits perfectly with our company purpose to ‘Move the world towards easy and sustainable’ - given Paris 2024's carbon emission target.
From October 2022, all employees in the company are invited to join Toyota’s ‘Start Your Impossible’ programme, with the aim to make a difference for themselves, their colleagues and society at large.
