Volatility and uncertainty are once again on the menu for shippers around the world. With the year of 2023 having marked a return to pre-pandemic schedule reliability, it is now apparent that we will enter 2024 with darker clouds on the horizon.

Decarbonizing the supply chain is a joint effort. As a result of our long-standing partnership with Everllence (formerly MAN Energy Solutions) (MAN ES) in Denmark, we have initiated a project to test and develop sustainable logistics solutions. The full project scope involves 100% ocean biofuel and trucks running on renewable diesel, HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil), ensuring approx. 85% reduction on the last-mile delivery. The business case will inform future co-led carbon-reducing initiatives.

Windward’s solution will provide Scan Global Logistics’ customers with a single source of truth of real-time ocean freight data, enhanced visibility, and the tools to optimise decision-making and manage by exception for increased on-time performance.
