Sustainability Solutions That WORK

Sustainability is a strategic imperative that can drive cost savings, optimize operations, and build resilience across the supply chain. But how can businesses effectively integrate sustainability into their core operations to achieve real results?

In this episode, Scott W. Luton is joined by Evan Junker, Chief Growth Officer, and Tjeerd de Jong, Partner at SPARQ360, to discuss actionable strategies for embedding sustainability into everyday supply chain management. From reducing greenhouse gas emissions to improving operational efficiency, they share practical examples of how companies are transforming sustainability from a compliance requirement into a competitive advantage.

Evan and Tjeerd also explore the importance of cross-functional leadership alignment, the impact of EcoVadis scores, and how businesses can reduce payback periods on sustainability initiatives. Tune in to discover how to implement real-world sustainability solutions that not only protect the planet but also boost the bottom line.

This episode is hosted by Scott Luton and produced by Amanda Luton.
