  • Intensive experiments with hydrogen and fossil-free fuels in the field of line haul and renewable energy for sites.

Last mile delivery: challenges, solutions and trends in 2024 

  • Need operational optimization strategies in the Last Mile to boost productivity and efficiency.
  • Shipping cost will remain the top priority, while quality will start regaining its importance.
  • Need to bring green delivery back to the top of the agenda.

The value of collaborative logistics

  • For the customer, it doesn’t matter where a breakdown occurs; just that it occurred.
  • The customer will blame the merchant, who will hold the service provider responsible.
  • Collaboration is key for a seamless experience as no one entity can do it all.

Enhance operational efficiency and security by unlocking the potential of AI 

  • Research conducted by UPS Capital shows shippers would value and leverage a tool that would help them proactively mitigate risks and make better shipping decisions.
  • The Porch Piracy Pandemic is a real thing! Some ways to prevent it are having a visible security camera on your porch, using a porch lock box for parcels or requesting deliveries to a pick-up location.

Commenting on the conference as a whole, Neil Jackson, CEO of Triangle Management said: “There is a need for Posts to shift to a more modern focus continuing transformation plans and creating new strategies to survive the ever-changing landscapes at a fast rate”.
