DigiHaul helps M&S with return load optimisation to meet net-zero target

DigiHaul is helping M&S reduce its logistics-related emissions by using its technology to bring down empty running and improve network visibility.

The freight tech firm is using its backhaul matching solution, which relies on the latest tech to identify complementary journeys based on their location and type of goods, to boost return load optimisation and it said carbon emissions from the retailer’s transport network should reduce as a result.
