Nestlé achievements

• By using a careful loading pattern to reduce wasted space, Nestlé has increased lorry loads by one tonne, to an average of 23 tonnes, reducing unproductive miles.
• Nestlé’s improved distribution systems in the UK have meant a reduction in the distance travelled by 6%.
• Nestlé UK & Ireland has developed a "linked journey" operating policy, which minimises the proportion of vehicles on the road and the number of journeys that are needed in total.
• Nestlé UK & Ireland has achieved less than 12% empty-running of its fleet (compared to a 26% commercial vehicle average).
