Hub Group earns eighth EPA excellence award
OAK BROOK - Hub Group earned its eighth SmartWay Excellence Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, being named an industry leader in freight supply chain environmental performance and energy efficiency.
Hub Group was one of 58 truck and multimodal carriers to receive this distinction, representing the best environmental performers of SmartWay's 3,700 partners.
The company achieved the designation through supply chain offerings that saved gallons of diesel fuel and reduced carbon dioxide emissions, Hub Group said. It takes a carbon-friendly approach to supply chain transportation by helping customers measure and reduce their carbon footprint.
"Sustainability is a core part of our organization and we are grateful for this outstanding recognition," said David Yeager, Hub Group chairman and CEO.
