Imagine a world where every package delivered doesn't just reach its destination but also contributes to a greener future. Sounds too good to be true? Not anymore.
As online shopping carts overflow and doorstep deliveries boom, a sustainable shift is quietly unfolding in the last mile of e-commerce. For businesses, this shift presents both a challenge and an opportunity. What if there was a way to meet these demands while reducing operational costs?
Enter Consumer+, Australia's newest last-mile delivery service.
We're not just delivering packages; we're delivering on a promise for reduced emissions and smarter resource use. But here's the kicker – what if going green could also save you money?
Recent research from Capgemini highlights that socially responsible practices are crucial to frequent online grocery buyers. These consumers are increasingly drawn to brands that align with their values, particularly when it comes to sustainability. Three key factors are shaping their purchasing decisions:
Remarkably, almost 50% of frequent purchasers will only shop with retailers that uphold these values—a significantly higher rate than less frequent buyers. This trend emphasises the need for companies to adapt quickly to stay competitive.
Major brands are already responding to this shift. For example, Nestlé has committed to making all of its packaging recyclable or reusable by 2025.
As Nestlé's Supply Chain Director, Sebastien Auger points out, "Sustainable packaging is a key area we are focusing on... It is our ambition, and we are working hard to achieve this." The takeaway is clear: businesses that embrace sustainability can not only retain environmentally conscious customers but also strengthen their market position.
This is where Consumer+ steps in. Offering an efficient and eco-friendly approach to deliveries, Consumer+ meets both the logistical needs of businesses and the sustainability demands of today's consumers.
Our solution is designed to not only cut costs but also minimise environmental impact across every step of the delivery process.
Fewer Trucks, More Impact: By consolidating shipments, we reduce the number of vehicles on the road to help lower fuel consumption and traffic congestion. This means fewer emissions and makes your deliveries more environmentally friendly.
Smarter Route Optimisation: Our advanced route planning technology ensures that every delivery follows the most efficient path, cutting down unnecessary miles and drastically reducing fuel usage.
Minimised Packaging Waste: Consolidating multiple deliveries into fewer trips means less packaging is required which helps overall cut down on waste and reduces your business's environmental footprint.
Energy-Saving Warehousing: Our streamlined processes enable us to use less energy in warehousing operations.
No Hidden Fees: Unlike many competitors, we offer transparent pricing with no unexpected surcharges.
Real-Time Tracking: Stay in control with our real-time tracking feature, providing up-to-the-minute updates at every stage of delivery. This reduces customer enquiries and improves overall satisfaction.
As consumer demand shifts towards brands that prioritise sustainability, your last-mile delivery process should reflect the same values. Consumer+ offers a seamless blend of efficiency, transparency, and control.
With fewer trucks, optimised routes, reduced packaging waste, energy-efficient warehousing, and clear pricing, Consumer+ is the best solution for businesses committed to a greener, smarter future.
