goals
Schneider National, Inc. (NYSE: SNDR), a premier multimodal
provider of transportation, intermodal and logistics services, is
proud to announce that it has once again been selected as the
PepsiCo Asset Sustainability Carrier of the Year. This marks the
third consecutive year that Schneider has received this prestigious
recognition.
For over two decades, Schneider has worked closely with PepsiCo,
achieving significant milestones in sustainable transportation.
Notably, Schneider became the first third-party carrier to
transport zero emission shipments for PepsiCo globally last year.
Since then, the company has successfully completed nearly 800
shipments for PepsiCo’s Frito-Lay North America division using its
battery electric vehicle (BEV) fleet in Southern California.
“We are honored to be recognized by PepsiCo for our continued
commitment to sustainability,” said Schneider Chief Commercial
Officer (CCO), Group Senior Vice President and General Manager of
Logistics Erin Van Zeeland. “As we continue to drive our industry
forward, we are privileged to collaborate with other leaders like
PepsiCo who share our vision for a greener future. Together, we’re
not just reducing emissions; we’re crafting a legacy of
responsibility and innovation for a healthier planet.”
Schneider operates one of the most efficient fleets in North
America. Last year, Schneider debuted its fleet of nearly 100 BEVs,
including 92 Freightliner eCascadias and two Lonestar S22 terminal
electric tractors. Since then, the company has surpassed 4 million
zero emission miles of customer freight hauled.
The company also opened a large-scale charging depot at its
South El Monte Operations Center in California, which features 16
350 kW dual-corded dispensers, allowing 32 trucks to be charged
simultaneously.
Growing its BEV fleet is a key aspect of Schneider’s long-term
commitment to move goods as efficiently as possible and emit less
CO2. The company is proudly already 90% of the way to its 2025 goal
of reducing CO2 emissions by 7.5% per mile and aims to reduce CO2
emissions per mile by 60% by 2035.
