Sustainability has been a buzzword for a while now, as it is something everyone can play a part in and something we all need to take responsibility for. As more corporations and consumers prioritize “going green” or being environmentally friendly, sustainability will remain a focus.

Coyote Logistics and Martec discovered that 81% of supply-chain companies have increased their focus on sustainability in the last three years, attributing the sustainability adjustments to pressure from stakeholders and global demand to “go green.”
