West Chester, PA - July 1, 2019 - A. Duie Pyle (Pyle), the premier provider of asset and non-asset based transportation and supply chain solutions in the Northeast, has been named to Food Logistics' 2019 Top Green Providers List for its commitment to incorporating superior sustainability practices throughout its service centers, warehouses, docks and fleet operations. The annual list recognizes companies whose products, services or exemplary leadership enhance sustainability within the food and beverage industry.
"We are committed to maintaining an industry leadership position in the development and deployment of sustainable practices," said Frank Granieri, COO of Supply Chain Solutions at A. Duie Pyle. "We are once again honored to be recognized as part of Food Logistics' 2019 Top Green Providers. After recently implementing our new electric trucks, we are continuing to conceptualize new initiatives, both small and large, that will benefit key industries like the food and beverage sector."
Pyle takes multiform steps in promoting sustainability across its enterprise. Key measures include recycling oil and water, governing tractor speed, installing tube and LED lighting, investing in electric trucks, and transitioning to paperless operations. Honorees were evaluated based on participation in recognized sustainability programs such as the Environmental Protection Agency's SmartWay initiative, and were selected based upon considerations including operation of LEED-certified facilities or those featuring solar panels, energy saving measures, installations and retrofit upgrades that produced measurable reductions in GHG emissions, among other criteria.
"We are proud to once again name A. Duie Pyle as a Top Green Provider recipient this year," said Lara L. Sowinski, Editorial Director of Food Logistics. "After being recognized for the past three years, we continue to be impressed with Pyle's achievements in sustainable practices.
