The Problem
Key pain points of the FMCG industry
FMCG companies face intense ESG pressure due to brand reputation and consumer expectations. They need full supply chain transparency and decarbonization, while logistics providers manage fragmented global networks and cargo owners require reliable, comparable emissions data for strategic decisions.
Complex transport networks with high fragmentation
FMCG logistics involves numerous small shipments, parcel flows, and consolidation across hubs. Large networks make it difficult for logistics providers to model actual transports accurately, while cargo owners struggle to verify emissions across fragmented shipments and multi-stop tours.
Intense pressure from multinational enterprises
Leading FMCG companies actively drive CO₂ tracking and decarbonization, setting high expectations for logistics providers. Close consumer visibility increases ESG scrutiny and brand risk, leading to demanding, often global, requirements for transparency and decarbonization.
Complexity in procurement, tendering, and global strategies
FMCG supply chains span multiple countries with varying markets, energy intensities, and modal mixes. This makes it hard to assess CO₂ costs, market trends, alternative fuel pricing, and regulatory impacts. Companies face challenges to forecast emissions, calculate scenarios, and manage carriers globally.
