1882: The QPR story begins
Queens Park Rangers F.C. were formed in 1886, when a team known as St Jude's Institute (formed 1884) merged with Christchurch Rangers (formed 1882), although their official founding date is 1882 the same as when Christchurch were first formed. They were called Queens Park Rangers, because most of the players came from the Queens Park area of North-West London.
1908: The NNR story begins
NNR is an acronym for Nishi Nippon Railroad Co., Ltd established in 1908 in Fukuoka, Japan. The early days were enjoyed as a public transport provider in the South West of Japan which is still a substantial part of the group business. In the 1940s, the various rail companies merged to create the present-day Nishi-Nippon Railroad Co., Ltd, later known as ‘Nishitetsu’.
A strong alignment on pragmatism and long-term approach.
Queens Park Rangers FC were founded over 100 years ago, in 1882 to be exact. Honours include winning the League Cup in 1967, being runners-up in the old First Division in 1975–76 and reaching the final of the FA Cup in 1982. More recently the club enjoyed success, winning the npower Championship in the 2010-11 season and winning the Sky Bet Championship Play-Off Final in the 2013-14 season to be promoted to the top tier of English football.

What can NNR do for QPR?
Save time
Managing logistics is seldom easy. It's really easy to burn management time [and therefore money] on chasing orders or downtime without equipment. NNR provide fully managed support to ensure that products and equipment are in the right place at the right time.
This enables QPR to concentrate on their core strategy; football and success.
Relocation
These days football is the most multi-national of all businesses. Player scouting is prominent all over the world as clubs search for a hidden gem whilst growing their own talent. Also a loaning process is very common in nurturing young talent.
Whatever, there are many player movements and the physical relocation is something that should not become stressful.
