All of the eco-social logistics companies featured on this list attempt to adhere to the triple bottom line in some capacity. One of the examples here that SocialBusiness.org has worked the closest with is GnewtCargo, a London-based organization that participated in Good for Nothing's 2011 campaign where a team of professionals volunteered their time to create something new for the organization, whether it was a stop motion video or a re-designed website. It added to their already cool model.
From emissions-free delivery to last mile delivery services, these eco-social logistics companies, as social businesses, attempt to bring something a little more interesting to the game of logistics, which is often considered boring and, as times, unmarketable, to say the least.
