Rhyce Dawson, Associate Director at TMX Transform
Our urban spaces are living organisms, constantly adapting to the needs of their communities, industries and the environment. The Covid-related e-commerce boom has shifted consumer expectations to a point that is changing the landscape and infrastructure of our towns and cities. But the convenience of delivery comes at a price – for businesses and the planet. Last mile sustainability is vital, but to remain resilient and relevant, businesses also need to examine all logistics systems and networks.
