INDUSTRY 4.0: Get with the times
That was the basic translation of the JapanCorp company slogan, and while Chantrea thought it was a bit cheesy, she had to admit it seemed accurate enough.

Now, just two years later, the firm was outperforming all competitors through its network of smart factories and distributors.
