As the South African economy is ever-evolving and growing in size, the importance of Business Sustainability in today’s environment has increasingly become more evident. Business sustainability comes down to the focus on understanding the widening impact of a company’s operations on the environment and the communities around it. It (sustainability) should be embedded into a company’s culture and associated with its core business activities. The ongoing relevance of sustainability within any sector, including transport, should be driven by the needs of multiple stakeholders such as customers, employees, shareholders, government and society.
A sustainable business will try to reduce its carbon footprint, operate under ethical standards and balance economic growth with environmental protection. By adhering to these principles, businesses are not only creating a favourable environment for themselves, they are aiding future generations by implementing policies that reduce resource depletion, reduce emissions and make sure that the environment is healthy and balanced.
It’s no news that businesses around the world are discovering the need for greater commitments to sustainability. According to the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) 2019 Trend Report, South African businesses are indeed making moves in the right direction, but still have a long way to go, particularly in the areas of energy, buildings, transport, and land.
In South Africa, the concept of sustainable transport is becoming increasingly important, primarily because of its ability to reduce the impact of emissions on the environment. This makes it essential for those operating in the transport sector to properly consider their energy use and emissions. Therefore, in creating a sustainable and profitable transport system, efforts should be made to reduce the amount of fuel used, decrease the amount of emissions released, and cut down on the overall cost of transport.
It’s no secret that reducing traffic will require a complete rethink of how freight is handled. QikTruck is an on-demand truck and driver hire service that helps meet the urgent needs of businesses for transporting goods.
