Deliveree is delighted to announce its environment, social, and governance (ESG) and impact achievements for the last twelve months ending April 2023. Following a multi-month effort to identify, collect, quantify, and interpret millions of organic and surveyed data points within its business, we can summarize our achievements in four major categories as follows:
- Emissions reductions to combat climate change,
- Road traffic reduction to support infrastructure and sustainable communities,
- Income acceleration to promote decent work and fight poverty, and
- Education on the app-economy to promote decent work and reduce inequality.
Emissions – Deliveree’s marketplace technology is powered by smart algorithms that give bookings to trucks in the right place at the right time to increase their utilization and decrease the distances those trucks drive while empty. We call this “smart assignments”. Smart assignments to the tens of thousands of trucks in our marketplace resulted in an ESG impact reduction of over 3 million kilograms of CO2 emissions over the last twelve months.
UN Sustainable Development Goal: Climate Action
Road Traffic – Likewise in connection with Deliveree’s smart marketplace technology and the powerful effect it has on the efficiency of the tens of thousands of trucks in its marketplace, we produced an ESG impact reduction of 5.3 million kilometers in truck road usage over the last twelve months.
UN SD Goals: Infrastructure and Sustainable Cities
Income Acceleration – Deliveree’s marketplace empowers independent owner-operator drivers and small family trucking businesses with the ability to increase their income through a combination of efficiency (earning more by working the same amount of time) and time monetization (converting idle time to productive earning time). Together, this social impact empowerment resulted in average hourly earnings increases of 2.8x among 73% of our vendors and total earnings increases of 2.3x among 82% of our vendors according to a mass survey of thousands of vendors in April 2023.
UN SD Goals: No Poverty and Decent Work
New Economy Education – Deliveree introduces, educates, and acclimates its tens of thousands of independent owner-operator drivers and small family trucking companies on two important drivers of the new world economy: working via mobile application and the gig economy. 73% of our vendors reported that they had never used an app to make money before learning this from Deliveree. Furthermore with regard to social impact, we provided an average of 44 direct instructional hours to each of our vendors over the last twelve months.
UN SD Goals: Decent Work and Reduced Inequalities
Deliveree’s dual mission is to bring revolutionary elasticity, efficiency, cost savings to the trucking and cargo shipping experiences of its millions of customers including individuals, SMEs, and corporations all the while empowering its vast community of owner-operate drivers and family owned trucking businesses to seize control over their financial futures with a massive social impact.
“We’re well known for what we do for customers. But the unsung heroes of our story are the tens of thousands of truck drivers who own and drive their own trucks and the small family businesses who own and operate their own fleets to whom our platform has given them the tools and empowerment to change their lives and the communities around them. This has a cascading social impact on the communities around them,” – Tom Kim, Co-Founder & CEO of Deliveree
