New tool allows customers in MENA to measure the carbon footprint of their shipments
FedEx has launched a new tool, FedEx® Sustainability Insights (FSI), giving customers across Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa (AMEA) markets* access to emissions information on their shipments within the FedEx network.
They can use the data to help make informed decisions on their future shipping strategy to reduce their impact on the planet, according to a press release.
Created by FedEx Dataworks, the innovative cloud-based data engine uses near-real-time FedEx network data to estimate CO2e emissions. Customers can view emissions data for individual tracking numbers as well as aggregate historical data for their accounts. Data displayed in the tool includes mode of transport, service type, and country or territory for all eligible FedEx Express® shipments.

“Environmental stewardship and transparent sustainability reporting are now a universal business imperative. At the same time, consumers also consider sustainability in their decision-making for e-commerce purchases,” observed Kawal Preet, President, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa region, FedEx Express.
“With FedEx® Sustainability Insights, we empower our customers with valuable data to help them make informed decisions to reduce their carbon footprint for a more sustainable future,” noted Kami Viswanathan, SVP, FedEx Express Middle East, Indian Subcontinent and Africa Operations.
