In the Coronavirus epidemic (a global health emergency declared by WHO) China, the logistics hub of the world has been the most affected amongst all its major competitors. The virus started spreading from the city of Wuhan towards the end of 2019 and by the end of January, citywide quarantine and strict transport restrictions had been placed in various parts of China in an attempt to stop the spread of the virus.

Therefore, it is only good business sense for brands to switch to more sustainable initiatives to fulfill the demands of their customers. However, becoming a sustainable brand is more than just a change in marketing and claiming to be ‘green’. Customers these days are more aware than ever and thus, base their purchasing decisions by evaluating a range of activities from sustainable production methods, supply chain, packaging to various other factors involved with the final product. Since supply chain covers the entire process of transforming raw materials into final products, shifting to a green supply chain is perhaps one of the best ways to becoming a more sustainable brand. From choosing raw materials that have been sustainably sourced to adopting environment-friendly packaging and everything in between will help the brand stand out as a ‘g...
