SOS-LOGistica (the Italian Association for Sustainable Logistics) was established in 2005 focused on an international topical issue. The citizens of advanced countries, in fact, are increasingly less willing to put up with traffic and environmental disadvantages associated with the delivery of goods. The aim is to create a “long” Supply Chain that understands this, as well as environmental compatibility and mobility issues, for a more complete and effective value chain.
Sustainable Logistics means logistics that aim to offer the service and economic conditions demanded by the market, while searching for the most appropriate environmental and mobility solutions, connected with the transport, delivery and recycling of products and goods. Sustainable Logistics ultimately promotes logistics that are more efficient and, concurrently, considers people’s quality of life.
This is based on the profound conviction that, in most cases, “pollution has a price” and the search for the most economical operations solution is not at all in conflict with the search for the right environmental solutions. These issues are particularly significant to the small and medium enterprises of our country (where, as is widely known, 98% of domestic product is attained by businesses with less than 50 employees) with the well-known aspects of cost and environmental disadvantages connected to the difficulties of acting in concert.
