Yamato Transport Co., Ltd. (ヤマト運輸株式会社 Yamato Un'yu Kabushiki-gaisha?) is Japan's largest door-to-door delivery service company and a 100% owned subsidiary of Yamato Holdings Co., Ltd ( ヤマトホールディングス株式会社 Yamato Hōrudingusu Kabushiki-gaisha?) (TYO: 9064). Their head office is located in Ginza, Tokyo.
The company's logo is a yellow oval with a black mother cat carrying her kitten in her mouth, symbolizing the company's promise that they take care of items entrusted to them as though the items were their own family. The logo is as familiar in Japan as the Coca-Cola logo is in the United States.
