Many companies are striving to achieve a more sustainable last mile, but is it possible? Navigating the current logistics model to overcome the challenges brought by 3rd party carriers, independent contractors, and “business as usual” seems daunting.

IKEA has decided to dive head first into sustainability, pledging to be emissions free by 2025. How are they conquering logistics-norms to achieve this?

We sat down with Steven Moelk of IKEA to discuss how they: 

• Brought together their delivery network of 3PLs to get on board with EV’s
• Overcame the challenges of working with independent contractor carriers and drivers while mandating truck standards
• The tools they’re using to motivate ICs and carriers to use EV’s
• Where they see sustainability going in the future

During the podcast, Steven mentions an app they use called Fluid Truck. eTrac Technologies has no affiliation with Fluid Truck, but you can learn more about them here: https://www.fluidtruck.com/
