Consumers are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of environmental issues, so ecommerce companiesare being called upon to respond with sustainable solutions that ensure a greener future.
It is important to emphasize then how the transition to carbon neutral logistics can not only be a great benefit to the planet, but also offer significant competitive advantages in the global marketplace.
In fact, sustainability and business success can go hand in hand and lead a company to great achievements.
