Japan is considered to be the major economy in the Asia Pacific region. The country is working on the installation of automated material-handling equipment in several manufacturing facilities. For instance, in June 2022, Mitsubishi announced the launch of an automated valet parking system’s demonstration testing at a commercial facility near Tokyo. This system offered by the company employs automated guided vehicle (AGV) robots in their facility. Moreover, in March 2022, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation announced that it had acquired 42,000 square meters of land in Owariasahi City, Japan, to establish a new production plant for factory automation (FA) products. In addition, the new factory will use several technologies, such as 5G communication and automatic guided vehicles (AGVs), as they can perform manufacturing tasks efficiently. Developments like these will help drive the country’s material handling market.

In Japan, one of the significant reasons for the labor shortage is the declining birth rate and aging population. This creates an issue of lack of available workers in the warehousing and logistics industry. Thus, there is a growing need to automate warehousing operations to reduce dependency on manual labor or workers. For instance, in October 2022, Dexterity, Inc. partnered with Sumitomo, a Japan-based global trading and business investment company, to bring more robots to warehouses in Japan. Further, the companies plan to deploy 1,500 intelligent material handling robots in Japan by 2026. Deployment like this shows the growing need for robots in Japanese warehouses.
