Packaging. Packing materials. Crates. Pallets. Tires. Old Equipment. Certainly, your supply chain creates an expansive graveyard of materials.

    Step 1-10 to achieving a green supply chain:

    With Green Supply Chain remaining one of the Top 10 Supply Chain Management trends, it is an issue you cannot afford to ignore.

    Achieving a green supply chain isn’t simply about measuring your carbon footprint and reducing emissions, it’s also about water conservation and toxic chemicals. This is a one stop shop event for supply chain and procurement professionals concerned about finding a holistic approach to this issue and the right balance between your social and environmental agenda.
