Enhancing Sustainable Business Development: Insights from the Sustainable Business Network

The Sustainable Business Network (SBN) has been supporting small businesses in sustainable development since 2002. With a practical focus on social, cultural, and environmental impacts, SBN helps members assess sustainability challenges through various initiatives like the Get Sustainable Challenge, Project GreenFleet, and diverse training workshops. A prime example is the collaboration between Fonterra and Toll NZ, which has reduced rail transportation emissions and truck movements in Waikato by leveraging rail as a primary transport mode. Join SBN to foster sustainable practices and reduce your carbon footprint.
