Sustainable Freight Logistics. Initiatives Supporting the Cooperative Logistics Supply Chain

We have promoted the Sustainable Freight Logistics Project to serve transport and logistics cooperatives, as well as the supply chains in which they operate (mass retail/GDO, manufacturing, the agricultural sector, etc.).At a regional level, a significant share of freight logistics supply and demand is associated with Legacoop. It is therefore crucial to qualify the relationship between supply and demand within cooperative supply chains, also in light of the digital and ecological transition.This project was carried out with the contribution of a nationally renowned working group coordinated by Professor Ennio Cascetta.Following an analysis phase of freight transport conditions in the region and its environmental impact, a Logistics Working Group was established at the Emilia-Romagna Region, involving other trade associations that shared the general objectives.Based on these premises, a new phase is now opening to support cooperatives:Analysis for sustainability projects within cooperative supply chains from the perspective of freight logistics utilization.Definition of the “GreenTruck” project, which includes building a database of vehicles available to cooperatives for freight transport and their adaptation with a view to sustainability. This is a nationwide project involving the National Production and Services Sector.
