  • Effort to Reduce Carbon Footprint | Press Releases
    PRESS RELEASE Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company Launches Effort to Reduce Carbon Footprint Enabled by Infosys Technologies World’s Largest Manufacturer of Chewing Gum Seeks to Transform Logistics Operations in Western Europe London, UK - November 20, 2008: In a move to extend its social responsibility leadership, the world’s leading manufacturer of chewing gum Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company is reducing the carbon footprint it creates in its logistics operations, Infosys Technologies announced today. Infosys is enabling Wrigley to transform its logistics operations by providing solutions and services in a pilot to determine how much carbon emissions are produced and subsequently may be reduced across the company’s truck-based shipping operations in Western Europe. “Managing our impact on the environment is an integral part of Wrigley corporate philosophy,” said Ian Robertson, head of supply chain sustainability at Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company. “We’re committed to making improvements across all operations but need an integrated enterprise system to measure progress. Infosys provided that solution and services to empower that process.” Early in the pilot, Infosys identified logistics operations in which Wrigley may reduce its carbon footprint by as much as 20 percent, and provided process consulting around operational adoption. The analysis will continue to evaluate Wrigley’s complex distribution network across six countries in Western Europe – spanning more than 44 million kilometers a year in shipments between suppliers, the company and its own customers and includes its distribution centers – for CO2 emissions emitted according to the UK’s Defra (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) standards. Infosys is using its patent-pending Logistics Optimization solution and carbon management tools to deliver the carbon footprint analysis to Wrigley as a managed information service.
