AZ-COM Maruwa Holdings, a Japanese logistics company, plans to use the yen-backed JPYC stablecoin for payments to about 2,300 partner carriers and independent drivers. The company will invest ¥1 billion in JPYC and form a business partnership with the stablecoin issuer, marking Japan's first large-scale corporate adoption of JPYC. This move aims to expand JPYC's use beyond retail trials into routine business payments across a large logistics network. The rollout will test JPYC's capability for regular corporate settlements and comes amid growing stablecoin adoption and regulatory tightening in Japan.
