🌿 Transforming Last Mile Logistics for a Sustainable Future 🚲📦 The e-commerce boom has revolutionised shopping, but at what cost? The surge in delivery vehicles has led to significant congestion and pollution, with the UK facing a £7.9 billion economic hit and 64,000 premature deaths annually due to polluted air. 🌍😷 Rob King, CEO and founder of Zedify explores how to manage the growing demand for last mile logistics sustainably. While electric vehicles offer some solutions, the real game-changers are micro-hubs and cargo bikes. By strategically placing smaller hubs closer to urban centers and using eco-friendly cargo bikes, we can cut emissions by over 80% compared to electric vehicles and 90% compared to diesel vans. 🚴♂️⚡ Advanced algorithms, AI-powered route optimisation, and robust reverse logistics are also essential for creating an efficient and sustainable last mile delivery system. 🔗 Read the full article: https://bit.ly/3SC7V83 #LastMileLogistics #Sustainability #Ecommerce #GreenLogistics #CargoBikes #UrbanMobility #TechInnovation #Zedify #RobKing #FutureOfLogistics #CleanerCities
