[Johannesburg, 12 June 2013]
 Marius Swanepoel Swanepoel scooped this coveted award and was honoured at the event for his commitment to, and significant achievements in, driving effective emission reductions - both within his own organisation and across IMPERIAL Logistics’ entire supplier and value chains. "Transformation to greener business starts in the supply chain," he stresses. “There are opportunities to reduce emissions through route optimisation and greater fuel efficiency, as well as energy, water and waste management, among other initiatives. For sustainability strategies, the supply chain is the 'make or break' zone,” he says, adding that sustainability is an economic imperative that is playing an increasingly significant role in the long-term success, leadership, and social and economic relevance of businesses. The Nedbank Capital Sustainable Business Awards aim to showcase and promote best practice in sustainability. The inclusion of the Sustainability in Leadership Award is intended to recognise and ultimately encourage sustainability leadership practices of individuals in executive management positions, which Nedbank believes will assist in raising the benchmark.
