“Regardless of mode, Digital Supply Network and Elemica Eyefreight together deliver an optimal set of order and shipment delivery control that adheres to business rules that maximize food and beverage fulfillment KPIs, while minimizing mileage and fuel usage,” said Cindi Hane, Vice President, Product Management and General Manager, Eyefreight TMS, at Elemica. “Elemica’s digitally connected network of supply chain partners work collaboratively to meet global inbound and outbound delivery needs while keeping mileage as low as possible. This is truly an honor for Elemica to win this award.”

The system uses real-time tracking and exception-based processing across multi-modes of transportation.  This visibility extends to the entire supply chain, validating the shelf-lives of all ingredients, reducing wastes. With Elemica Eyefreight Transportation Management System (TMS), costs are reduced, food safety is improved, and management gains insight into critical costs, transport plan deviations, and emissions.

“Our annual Top Green Providers award recognizes companies whose products, services, or exemplary leadership enhance sustainability within the food and beverage industry.

Food Logistics’ annual Top Green Providers Award recognizes companies whose products, services, or exemplary leadership is enhancing sustainability within the food and beverage industry. Each year, the criteria for earning a spot on the list become more stringent for applicants. For example, the editorial staff evaluates a company’s participation in such programs as the EPA’s SmartWay and other recognized sustainability programs. Other criteria include facilities that are LEED-certified, solar power, LED lighting, and other energy-saving installations and retrofits that produce measurable reductions in GHG emissions.
