Log-hub and Pledge Create More Transparency in Supply Chains

Log-hub, the leading Swiss company for supply chain technology, has entered into a partnership with Pledge. Both companies announced this at the German Logistics Congress in Berlin. Pledge is a platform that offers integrated carbon dioxide measurements and analyses for supply chains, as well as a comprehensive marketplace for compensation and reduction technologies. The goal of the partnership is to provide customers with transparency about emissions in the supply chain and solutions for climate protection.

(Zug/Berlin) Log-hub’s supply chain solutions include various supply chain apps and an AI-based software that enables users to redesign their networks, optimize their routes and warehousing operations, and forecast customer demand based on the latest machine learning technology. Through the partnership between Log-hub and Pledge, Log-hub’s more than 13,000 customers, including CEVA, DB Schenker, DHL, Henkel, Unilever, and Coca-Cola, are now also able to calculate their CO₂ footprint and identify the largest sources of emissions.

Pledge captures the entire complexity of a solid CO₂ accounting in the supply chain, from data integration to compliance with globally recognized methods and frameworks such as GHG, GLEC, and ICAO.

Compensation Transactions for Emission Reduction

Log-hub will also provide its customers with the opportunity to engage in compensation transactions through Pledge’s marketplace, where access to a wide range of verified projects and technologies for emission reduction is available. The selection of Pledge’s partners is based on the Oxford Principles for Net Zero Aligned Carbon Offsetting, with projects verified by established registries according to strict methods, and emission reduction solutions reviewed by independent climate experts.

Gerald Chifamba, Head of Business Development at Pledge, says: “With our platform, we support Log-hub in providing its customers with transparency about their CO₂ footprint and effective climate protection measures. Together, we can accelerate the decarbonization of supply chains.”

Perfect Toolset on the Path to Net Zero

Dirk Hanschur, Managing Director of Log-hub AG, adds: “We want to make an active contribution to climate protection efforts within the logistics industry and support our customers on their journey to becoming ‘Net Zero Heroes’. Through the partnership with Pledge, our customers can now calculate their CO₂ footprint directly in Excel. Our supply chain apps combined with Pledge’s compensation platform form the perfect toolset for the path to Net Zero.”
