Maximise profits, minimise emissions: What’s the industry’s best kept secret?

In a world increasingly driven by environmental consciousness, the logistics industry is at a crossroads: How to make deliveries more sustainable without sacrificing profitability? The solution lies in the power of accurate location data.

The logistics sector, crucial to global commerce, significantly contributes to carbon emissions, mainly due to inefficiencies in last-mile deliveries. Traditional navigation systems often add extra miles due to inaccuracies, increasing both emissions and operational costs. However, employing precise location data can drastically change this narrative.

For instance, our recent report reveals that on average, the distance between the locations indicated by Google Maps and our precision technology is about 145 metres. This discrepancy results in an astonishing 378 million wasted miles annually, which translates to an additional 88,056 tonnes of CO2 equivalent emissions – the yearly carbon footprint of a town with 9,000 residents.

By ensuring deliveries are accurate to the doorstep, this technology minimises unnecessary travel. Reducing just one mile per delivery can lead to remarkable annual savings in fuel and a significant decrease in carbon emissions for a fleet. This efficiency doesn't just benefit the environment; it also positively affects a company’s bottom line and operational efficiency.

With growing consumer demand for environmentally responsible services and in an age where consumers are increasingly making purchase decisions anchored sustainability, companies employing eco-friendly practices are gaining a competitive edge.
