ESG: a long-term commitment

Today, pushing the boundaries of sustainability to an entirely new level of business commitment has never been more important. In line with the growing e-commerce sector, the volume of new warehousing is increasing, and with this the industry is also having a greater impact on the environment, society and the economy. Prologis’ data shows that goods worth over USD 2 tln per year flow through the company’s logistics centres around the world – that’s 2.5 pct of global GDP, or a value comparable to the annual exports of China.

Where the customer wants to be

As digitisation accelerates further, the landscape for both consumer and commerce is being transformed. We live in times of dynamic adaptation to an ever-changing reality. In these circumstances, one of the key factors in securing a competitive advantage is going to be flexibility. The winners will be those players who adapt to the upward trend in e-commerce – which includes providing a comprehensive range of the types of warehouse facility that are needed.

Christmas comes (too bloody) early

“It was a beautiful warm day, even though it was December.” Stop! We’re nowhere near December yet, but Christmas has already come to the shop shelves, the radio and the television! Is this normal?
