Greencarrier finalists in InfraAwards Innovation C Greencarrier finalists in InfraAwards Innovation Competition 🌟 Hi Åsa Leander and Erik Sjöström! Can you tell us more about this competition? - Of course! InfraAwards is a Swedish innovation competition that challenges various organizations to come up with innovations that find solutions for more resource-efficient and sustainable development of the transport infrastructure. The question to solve in this challenge is: ‘What does the transport infrastructure sector need to solve in order to quickly become sustainable, smart and resource efficient?’. Greencarrier has been chosen as one of five finalists among 20 applicants! Can you tell us more about your innovation idea that you are competing with? - We see that many of our customers want to find sustainable transport alternatives and that their goal is to reduce their footprint. The problem is that they don’t always know what is available on the market, and that you can’t see what effects the different choices have in form of lead time, cost and environmental impact. Our idea is to develop a digital tool that presents available transport solutions for a specific transport between A-B, and report lead time, cost and environmental impact in a clear way. We also want to make the most sustainable alternative as the first or default choice, to reduce the threshold for choosing sustainable. When is the final event and why should Greencarrier win? - The winner will be announced at a final event on September 1st. Our solution is really needed on the market and can make a big difference when it comes to reaching the high set goals for reduced emissions in the Swedish logistics and transport sector. The solution can be used in Europe or other parts of the world as well, meaning that the actual possible impact is even bigger ahead! Greencarrier has more than 20 years of experience working with forwarding and logistics planning, and sustainability has always been important to us and is a guiding light. We really hope that we’ll win! #greencarrier #logistics #transport #sustainability #infraawards #infrasweden2030
Say 👋 to Louis Gravers, our trainee at Greencar Say 👋 to Louis Gravers, our trainee at Greencarrier Liner Agency in Denmark 👇 Hi Louis! How has your trainee period been so far and what does your typical week look like? – My trainee period has been really good so far! My typical week involves providing service for our import customers so that they are sure and safe that their shipment will be delivered as promised. Providing feeder details, releasing customers’ shipments, as well as plenty of other things included. 🌟 What are you most looking forward to this year as a trainee? – To learn everything about the different transport possibilities and a lot more about the logistics business in general. This year is all about import, so I look forward to also trying out export next year. 🌟 What is your background and why did you choose to join the shipping and logistics industry? – Before I joined the shipping and logistics industry, I worked in different IT companies as a consultant. I have a lot of friends working as freight forwarders, and I have for several years heard so much nice about this industry. After working in the IT business for 6 years, I decided to try out the shipping industry. And I have not regretted it! 🌟 How would you describe Greencarrier as a workplace? – It’s a professional workplace with dedicated people who loves working together in a happy atmosphere. Greencarrier is also a social workplace, where we do a lot of activities together after work. I enjoy working here a lot! #meetagreencarrier
