TORONTO, July 17, 2024 — GoBolt, a technology company building the largest sustainable supply chain network, today announces its mid-year sustainability achievements for 2024, highlighting the company’s unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship and innovation in the logistics industry.
In the first half of 2024, GoBolt has made significant strides in its sustainability efforts. More than 350,000 deliveries from January to June 2024 were completed using electric vehicles (EVs), marking a 497% year-over-year growth compared to the same timeframe last year. This increase underscores GoBolt’s dedication to reducing its carbon footprint and leading the logistics sector’s transition toward more planet positive practices.
GoBolt’s sustainability milestones highlight our longstanding belief that the pursuit of sustainable logistics is not just an aspiration but an achievable reality,” said Mark Ang, Co-founder and CEO of GoBolt. “We are redefining the benchmarks for sustainable logistics. Our achievements in the first half of this year prove that we can meet the challenge and lead by example in our commitment to environmental responsibility.”
Pushing Boundaries
Beyond its EV delivery advancements, GoBolt continues to leverage its carbon calculator and partnership with restoration platform, veritree. Together, they planted 19,564 trees in the first six months of 2024. This initiative enhances carbon sequestration efforts and contributes to the restoration of natural habitats and biodiversity.
In addition, GoBolt has successfully avoided 248.33 tons of CO2 during this period. This figure reflects the tangible benefits of the company’s sustainability measures and its proactive approach to reducing carbon emissions.
“We’re proud of our accomplishments in 2024, and we’re driven by the knowledge there’s still much more to achieve,” said Ang. “By utilizing our proprietary technology and emphasizing sustainability, GoBolt is committed to redefining the logistics landscape. Our goal is to inspire industry peers and retail partners to join us in this endeavor.”
