3PL Solutions Lead to a Green Supply Chain

Creating a green supply chain means both adding more green to the bottom line as well as doing business in an Earth friendly manner. The third party logistics services available through GENCO Supply Chain Solutions will help you meet both your financial and environmental goals.

Transportation Management

One of the best ways to reduce your carbon footprint is through efficient transportation management. Choosing an effective shipment method isn’t always obvious. GENCO’s Transportation Logistics division can help you determine when full truckload, LTL or parcel delivery services make the most sense for your organization.

Supply Chain Network Optimization

Supply chain network optimization can be used to reduce the need for transportation services. Which makes better sense:

Transporting smaller quantities of product more frequently
Making one large delivery less often.

GENCO’s supply chain network optimization services will identify the strategy you need for green success.

Eliminate Unsaleables

There is no greater waste than transporting product that is unsaleable. Damaged products need to be returned. Spillage from leaking products can lead to environmental issues, not to mention resources needed for cleanup. Damage analysis audits will identify and offer recommendations that will significantly reduce unsaleables. GENCO’s Damage Research division finds ways to drive cost and waste out of the supply chain. The results are a more eco-friendly and cost effective supply chain.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

One of the easiest ways to green the supply chain is through reverse logistics. A percentage of your product is going to be returned. Whether the product is damaged or just unwanted, good use can be made of it. Damaged products can be repaired or refurbished, then placed back into the market. GENCO Marketplace offers product liquidation services that return unwanted, repaired and refurbished merchandise back into the sales cycle.

Business decisions are most likely going to made based on the bottom line. Using GENCO’s 3PL services unites the desire to act more environmentally friendly with the need to improve a company’s financial status.
