In this episode of Sustainability as Strategy, Roland Berger Partner Raj Kumar joins host Sean McMahon to explore how companies can make their supply chains more sustainable—without waiting for futuristic tech. Raj outlines a practical approach centered on three core levers: reducing miles, shifting modes of transport, and improving utilization. He shares real-world examples, including how a tequila company cut its carbon footprint by 30% and how smarter routing helped a retailer boost truck utilization from 60% to 85%. The conversation also dives into the surprising role tariffs can play in accelerating sustainability by reshaping global sourcing strategies.
