Exploring the Impact of Green Logistics Strategies on Supply Chain Efficiency and Sustainability: A Case Study of Posti Company

Abstract

The objective of this study was to study how Posti Group, a top postal and logistics company in Finland, benefit-ed from implementing green logistics. Because of increased attention to the environment, Posti started using sustainable logistics methods to save the ecosystem. The task was to see the types of green initiatives Posti uses, measure their impact on supply chain efficiency and consider what problems were found during their use. The study applied both surveys and interviews with staff from Posti, as well as material from reports, publica-tions and other literature. It was seen that the use of electric and biogas vehicles, route planning with digital tools and setting up energy-saving technologies helped to cut emissions and improve the operations. According to the results, using green logistics supports both the environment and the overall performance of the supply chain and other logistics enterprises can benefit from these findings.
