Fukuyama Transporting Co., Ltd. offers only limited insight into its climate-policy lobbying. The company indicates that it “collaborates with industry associations, such as the Japan Logistics Association, to promote decarbonization in the logistics sector,” which shows an indirect mechanism of engagement but does not clarify whether it sends letters, meets officials, or whom it tries to influence. It acknowledges involvement in broad policy areas—logistics-related environmental measures and preparation for “carbon tax scenarios”—yet it does not identify any concrete laws, regulations, or government initiatives it has sought to shape. Likewise, the company speaks in general terms about goals like reducing CO₂ emissions 35 % by 2030 and improving operational efficiency, without spelling out the specific legislative or regulatory changes it wants to see. Taken together, the disclosures point to some lobbying activity but lack the detail needed to demonstrate meaningful transparency on the policies, tactics, and outcomes of that engagement.

Fukuyama Transporting discloses only minimal insights into how it governs policy engagement, noting that it cooperates with the “一般社団法人日本物流団体連合会” which "低炭素化・脱炭素化を推進しています" and stating that as a member it "団体の方針に賛同し、物流環境対策に貢献しています". Oversight is hinted at through the statement that "気候変動を含むサステナビリティ課題に関しては、サステナビリティ委員会と定期的に情報共有、連携を図っています," indicating that the Sustainability Committee receives regular information about the association’s climate-related activities. However, the company does not disclose a formal policy or detailed process for monitoring or aligning either its direct lobbying or its wider trade-association advocacy with its own climate goals, nor does it identify a specific individual or board body responsible for approving or reviewing lobbying positions. There is also no mention of any mechanism to evaluate, correct, or exit associations whose positions might conflict with the company’s climate strategy. Overall, the evidence points to some oversight through committee information-sharing, but the broader governance framework for climate-related lobbying remains largely undisclosed.
