Key elements of our logistics capabilities in Africa include:
- Local expertise: Our regional partners provide invaluable on-the-ground knowledge of transportation infrastructure, routes, and relationships in their countries. This enables smart routing and problem solving.
- Multimodal flexibility: They utilise trucks, rail, rivers and coastal feeder vessels to bring biomass from remote inland areas to coastal ports in the most cost and carbon efficient ways.
- Minimizing waste: Our partner’s logistics are optimised to avoid fuel waste, empty backhauls, and other inefficiencies. This reduces costs and carbon footprints.
- Community engagement: Our partners conduct training programs to build logistics skills locally and ensure fair treatment of workers.
Our logistics services in Africa adhere to the same high sustainability standards as every other aspect of our supply chains. We are committed to extracting biomass responsibly while supporting local economies and environmental stewardship. Our experience in Africa allows us to do this successfully.
