Driving Sustainability in Logistics: A Partnership with MPM

MPM and Boughey Distribution - Building sustainable logistics

A Shared Commitment to Sustainability

For over 22 years, MPM has been dedicated to producing high-quality, responsibly sourced pet food. Sustainability has always been at the heart of their business, shaping decisions across their pet food supply chain. Their goal is simple: to ensure that every aspect of their operations, from sourcing ingredients to sustainable pet food distribution, minimises environmental impact and upholds ethical standards.

When it came to choosing a sustainable logistics provider, MPM sought a partner that shared their values. Boughey Distribution emerged as the ideal fit, offering a responsible, transparent approach to eco-friendly warehousing and transportation. Our partnership is built on a shared vision, delivering excellence while reducing our collective carbon footprint in logistics.

A Responsible Logistics Partnership

From the outset, MPM valued Boughey’s commitment to sustainable logistics solutions. Our relationship has evolved beyond a supplier-customer dynamic; together, we continuously seek new ways to drive logistics efficiency while reducing emissions.

Key benefits of our partnership include:

  • Carbon footprint reduction in supply chain – By optimising outbound deliveries and reducing empty running miles, we help MPM lower Scope 3 transportation emissions.
  • Enhanced supply chain transparency – Our robust reporting and tracking capabilities enable MPM to measure and manage their environmental impact in logistics with greater precision.
  • Ethical and responsible transport solutions – Ensuring fair labour practices in logistics and responsible handling throughout the pet food distribution process aligns with MPM’s ethical sourcing principles.

Collaboration for a Greener Future

Sustainability is an ongoing journey, and our partnership has led to key initiatives that make a real difference. Some of our joint efforts include:

  • Optimising order consolidation for eco-friendly distribution to improve transport efficiency and reduce waste.
  • Enhancing responsible waste management in logistics within the transportation process to minimise environmental impact.
  • Improving supply chain traceability to ensure sustainable and ethical logistics at every stage.

By working together, we are not just improving logistics sustainability, we are setting new standards for green supply chain management in the pet food industry.

The Bigger Picture: The Future of Sustainable Logistics

For MPM, partnering with eco-conscious logistics companies is essential to achieving long-term supply chain sustainability goals. Working with a sustainability-focused logistics provider strengthens their entire supply chain, ensuring that every step aligns with their environmental and ethical business commitments.

Choosing a sustainable logistics partner isn’t just about cost and efficiency, it’s about shared values. Boughey’s commitment to eco-friendly transport solutions has reinforced our sustainability efforts, helping us build a more resilient and ethical supply chain,” says MPM ESG Impact Manager, Joy Stevenson.

At Boughey, we believe that partnerships like this drive positive environmental change in logistics. By prioritising sustainability in transportation and warehousing, we are collectively working towards a greener, more responsible future, one where businesses, people, and the planet all benefit.

Looking Ahead

As MPM and Boughey continue to collaborate, our focus remains on sustainable logistics innovation and continuous improvement. From refining green transport strategies to further reducing carbon emissions in supply chain logistics, our journey towards a more eco-friendly logistics future is just beginning. Together, we’re proving that sustainable logistics practices aren’t just possible, they’re essential for long-term success.
