Easy Ways to Green Your Supply Chain

6/18/2010 at 11:00 am by

Maybe you’re already turning off the water while brushing your teeth or carrying around your reusable water bottle like it’s your wallet. Now, it’s time to get eco-conscious at the office. An easy way many businesses are greening their companies is by making their supply chains more sustainable.

To start, communicating with the companies in your supply chain about their environmental initiatives can be helpful. In fact, a study published by Business for Social Responsibility says most suppliers’ clients are asking about their environmental performance.

Using an ERP system is one way you can hold your company to higher environmental standards. Not only does the technology eliminate annoying time spent dealing with invoices and save you money, it will make your dedication to an environmentally conscious business clear to customers.

Also, if you don’t already, choose post-consumer recycled materials for your packages. The box is the customer’s first impression of your product, as Scott Wicker, VP of Sustainability for UPS, pointed out in an article on Environmental Leader. Packaging your products in smaller boxes is also an easy way to green your shipping.

Greening your supply chain could make you money, impress your customers and save the planet. Puma and Walmart are doing it – you probably can too.
