Sunset Transportation ("Sunset"), a premier third-party logistics
(3PL) provider and leader in global supply chain solutions, has
been named a 2024 G75 Green Supply Chain Partner by Inbound
Logistics. For the second year in a row, Sunset is among 75
companies recognized for their commitment to supply chain
sustainability through eco-friendly initiatives and best practices
that enhance a more sustainable global supply chain.
"Recognition as a G75 Green Supply Chain Partner
for two consecutive years highlights our unwavering commitment to
infusing sustainable practices throughout our operations," said
Lindsey Graves, CEO of Sunset Transportation. "We strive to
minimize our environmental impact and deliver eco-friendly
solutions to our customers and business partners."
Sunset has adopted environmentally focused
technologies and practices throughout its operations. This includes
collaborating with shippers and carriers to meet strict
environmental standards, utilizing advanced technology to enhance
efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and monitor emissions
through detailed reporting. Specifically, the 3PL is leveraging its
partnership with Highway to continuously advance shippers’
sustainability goals by streamlining compliance processes. Sunset’s
partnership with Highway enables shippers and carriers to work
together to measure, establish benchmarks, and report emissions to
improve freight efficiency and environmental performance within
their supply chain.
“We've invested in the Highway platform, which
actively monitors carriers' certification statuses and renewal
dates for various sustainability programs, including the EPA-backed
SmartWay program - with which Sunset has been a member since 2004,
the Air Resources Board Equipment Registration (ARBER) system, and
the California-focused Air Regulations Board (CARB) system,” said
Graves. “Highway provides automated verification, auditing,
visibility, and compliance data, ensuring that we source partner
carriers who meet the rigorous and unique sustainability
requirements of our shippers on a load-by-load basis.”
In addition, Sunset Transportation offers
customers monthly emissions reports, detailing emissions per
location, by carrier, load count, and identifying opportunities for
carbon reduction. Within Sunset’s internal organization, the 3PL
utilizes energy-efficient lighting and windows in all locations,
and practices paperless freight payment, as well as carrier and
customer accounting processes.
Sunset's recognition as a 2024 G75 Green Supply
Chain Partner reaffirms its proactive approach to sustainability.
Through initiatives focused on energy efficiency, carbon footprint
reduction, sustainable partnerships, and technological innovation,
Sunset continues to lead by example in promoting eco-friendly
practices within the logistics industry. This accolade not only
highlights Sunset's commitment to environmental responsibility but
also its ongoing efforts to drive positive change in supply chain
management.
