Kintetsu World Express, Inc. (Head Office: Tokyo, Japan) has received the 2025 Supplier Excellence Award (SEA) from Texas Instruments (TI), a leading global semiconductor manufacturer headquartered in Dallas, Texas, USA. The award recognizes suppliers that have provided outstanding service and support over the past year.

About the Supplier Excellence Award (SEA)

Established in 1984, the SEA is TI’s highest level of supplier recognition. Each year, a select group of suppliers is chosen based on their contributions in service and quality performance. Recipients are evaluated across six key criteria: cost, environmental and social responsibility, technology, responsiveness, assurance of supply, and quality.

KWE’s Achievement

KWE was selected as one of only 19 recipients for 2025 from more than 10,000 suppliers worldwide. This marks the sixth time KWE has received this prestigious award, following recognitions in 1993, 2007, 2011, 2016, and 2022.

KWE was recognized for its role in supporting TI’s global supply chain through cross-regional transportation and logistics operations, consistently delivering excellence in quality, on-time performance, and responsiveness.

As a global freight forwarder, KWE contributes to the stability and optimization of supply chains for industries requiring high precision and reliable supply, including the semiconductor sector. Leveraging its global network and high-quality operations, KWE will continue to serve as a trusted logistics partner, supporting customers’ business activities and contributing to the sustainable development of society and industry.
