thought for food

Sustainable Distribution 2008


18th June 2008
NEC, Birmingham


The sustainability issue is front of mind for every business leader and all organisations are either responding or developing strategies to respond on the issue. DEFRA’s Food Industry Sustainability Strategy has tasked the industry to deliver greater collaboration across transportation and distribution to mitigate its impact on the environment and to reduce food miles.

But how do businesses manage the need for greater efficiency, better service and manage its impact on the environment?  This event is designed to cut through the talk and identify the practical steps in which the industry can get started. This event will explore a plethora of developments taking place in the industry from fuel technologies, vehicle design, intermodal, transport optimisation, consolidation, warehouse design, sharing of assets and how companies assess/limit the impact on carbon emissions. You will also learn practical approaches on what you can do now to get started whilst taking a view to the future and likely considerations for all businesses.
