Did you know that supply chains are responsible for over 80% of a company’s greenhouse gas emissions and more than 90% of the impact on air, land, water, biodiversity, and geological resources? It’s time we shift gears towards sustainability. Implementing green logistics can reduce carbon emissions significantly. For instance, optimizing routes can save up to 20% of fuel consumption. Moreover, companies that invest in eco-friendly packaging have seen a reduction in material costs by up to 30%. Let’s not forget the power of data analytics. By leveraging big data, businesses can improve their supply chain efficiency by 10-20%, which translates to a lower carbon footprint. As consumers become more environmentally conscious, companies with sustainable supply chains are seeing a 5-20% increase in sales. It’s clear: going green is not just good for the planet—it’s good for business too. #Sustainability #SupplyChainSolutions #GreenLogistics

With all businesses now prioritising environmental sustainability, it becomes all the more important for us to optimise our supply chains to make it sustainable. The Challenge of Green Logistics: The tricky part lies in finding the right balance between efficiency and eco-friendliness.

#ICYMI Despite the growing emphasis on sustainability, there's a critical gap in how product design and sourcing sustainability metrics are tracked. Over two in five organizations admit to haphazard or nonexistent monitoring of crucial #sustainability metrics such as waste generation (43%), scope 1 and 2 (42%), scope 3 (41%) greenhouse gas emissions, and recycled or reused materials/components (40%). It's time we bridge this gap by investing in streamlined, automated tracking systems to drive meaningful change and accountability in our sustainability initiatives. Let's turn these insights into action for a more sustainable tomorrow! Source: Forrester
