ModusLink Global Solutions™ Inc. (NASDAQ: MLNK), a global, omni-channel technology and fulfillment provider, was announced as a recipient of Supply & Demand Chain Executive’s 2016 Green Supply Chain Award, which recognizes companies that are making green initiatives or sustainability a core part of their supply chain strategy, and those assisting their customers in achieving measurable sustainability goals for their businesses.
“Our honorees are showing that the bottom line and corporate responsibility are not mutually exclusive,” said Ronnie Garrett, editor of Supply & Demand Chain Executive. “This has been increasingly evident over the past few years and is relatively clear with the large number of entries we received this year—almost 200—for our annual green awards. Sustainability has, for these companies, become a key part of their supply chain strategies.”
ModusLink is deeply committed to developing socially and environmentally responsible supply chain solutions for all its global clients, as chronicled in its most recent Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report. ModusLink’s key sustainability achievements include its implementation of lean processes and its reduction of GHG emissions through the redesign of its client’s product packaging and shipping processes, resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings on packaging materials.
“As our customers continue to look to ModusLink to help them minimize their carbon footprint and present their products in a socially responsible and conscientious manner, this award signifies that our efforts are making a difference,” said Tim Barclay, chief operating officer at ModusLink. “Thank you Supply & Demand Chain Executive for this honor, and we will continue to instill a culture of sustainability within our own organization as well as our customers’.”
