Controlant Named to Food Logistics' Top Green Providers List for 2020

SAN FRANCISCO and REYKJAVIK, Iceland, June 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Food Logistics, the publication exclusively dedicated to covering the movement of product through the global food supply chain, has named Controlant to the Top Green Providers list for 2020.

Food Logistics' annual Top Green Providers recognizes companies whose products, services, or exemplary leadership is enhancing sustainability within the food and beverage industry. Each year, the criteria for earning a spot on the list become more stringent for applicants. For example, the editorial staff evaluates a company's participation in such programs as the EPA's SmartWay and other recognized sustainability programs; facilities that are LEED-certified, and/or feature solar panels, LED lighting and other energy-saving installations and retrofits that produce measurable reductions in GHG emissions, to name a few.

"Our annual Top Green Providers award recognizes companies whose products, services, or exemplary leadership enhance sustainability within the food and beverage industry. From technology that reduces a fleet's carbon footprint to software that helps shippers drive energy efficiency to systems and processes that help reduce the carbon and environmental impact of its customers' supply chains, these top green providers continue to practice the ultimate in sustainability year over year," says Marina Mayer, Editor-in-Chief of Food Logistics.

"We are honored to be recognized by this distinguished award for our sustainability efforts in the food supply chain," said Controlant CEO, Gisli Herjolfsson. "Our company's mission is dedicated to reducing global supply chain waste by 70 percent through our real-time monitoring technology and response services.
