Fewer emissions, same destination. Ventisqueros took a new step in its sustainability strategy byintegrating a biogas truck into its logistics operation for the first time, thanks to a partnershipwith its transport provider, Transportes GLA, and the Swedish brand Scania, a pioneer in sustainable mobility solutions. Starting in mid-November, the company will also incorporateBIOGNL trucks with 0% emissions.
The measure is part of the company’s 2024 Strategic Decarbonization Plan, which includesactions to reduce emissions in scopes 1, 2, and 3—the latter representing 97% of Ventisqueros’ total carbon footprint—and move toward carbon neutrality by 2045.
