The UK has set out clear targets to achieve net zero by 2050, with Oxfordshire set to be a leader in the low carbon transition nationally. But how can business leaders make practical changes to their organisations to support the transition, while keeping costs down?
In this episode of OxTalks, powered by the Oxfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership (OxLEP), host Howard Bentham is joined by Melanie Tattersall, Director of Sustainability and Communications at Darcica Logistics.
Award-winning delivery and fulfilment services business Darcica Logistics was launched by Melanie and her husband Anthony in the pandemic in June 2020, with the ambition to create a more sustainable logistics option for Oxfordshire. The company now has a 15,000 sq. ft warehouse in Bicester, wth a comprehensive service offering and over 80 drivers across 3 depots.
With over 20 years’ experience in environmental management, Melanie shares her advice for small businesses wanting to grow a more sustainable organisation, prioritise social value and make a positive impact on our planet.
Howard and James are joined by the Oxfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership’s Rob Panting, who discusses the tailored support that OxLEP has given to help Darcica Logistics’ growth, and the guidance on offer for other businesses needing support.
OxTalks is recorded at the Oxford studios of Story Ninety-Four.
