Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation has entered into a partnership with Fast Logistics Corporation to enhance Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives by incorporating electric vehicles (EVs) into its logistics operations. This collaboration aims to develop sustainable supply chain solutions, reduce carbon emissions, and encourage eco-friendly transportation practices.
Fast Logistics Corporation, a prominent end-to-end supply chain provider in the Philippines, has implemented an ESG strategy focused on sustainability and innovation. This strategy includes a transition to a low-carbon economy with the goal of long-term emission reductions. With over five decades of experience in various logistics services—such as seafreight, airfreight, inland trucking, RoRo transport, warehousing, cold chain solutions, and value-added services—Fast Logistics continues to offer efficient and cost-effective solutions for businesses.
Manuel L. Onrejas, Jr., Chief Operating Officer of Fast Logistics, highlighted the company’s dedication to ESG principles, stating: “Fast Logistics is deeply invested in sustainability, building stronger relationships with our clients and employees while contributing to the positive development of society.” He emphasized the importance of embracing technology and expressed honor in partnering with Ajinomoto to lead this transformation.
Through this partnership, the companies aim to encourage both local and multinational organizations to optimize delivery schedules, implement night deliveries to alleviate traffic congestion, and adopt electric vehicles to minimize carbon emissions. Additionally, Fast Logistics’ self-sustaining charging stations are designed to conserve energy within the community grid, and the provision of dedicated trucks for clients addresses trucking shortages.
Onrejas further stated, “At Fast, we believe leadership comes with an ESG responsibility. By transforming the way we operate the supply chain in partnership with our clients and suppliers, we actively support shared decarbonization goals and foster sustainable practices.” He underscored that this initiative extends beyond business interests, focusing on the future of the planet for upcoming generations.
The collaboration between Ajinomoto and Fast Logistics serves as a model for businesses seeking innovative and sustainable logistics solutions. Their joint commitment aims to establish a more environmentally friendly, efficient, and socially responsible supply chain, benefiting businesses, communities, and the planet.
