ProTrans CCO Shawn Masters added, “ProTrans puts a great emphasis on reducing our accounts’ environmental impact. We specifically engineer efficiencies to improve equipment utilization and reduce carrier drive times resulting resulting in reduced carbon emissions, reduced damages, and ultimately, reduced spend for our accounts. We are proud to partner with Ecovadis and look forward to growing our sustainability opportunities.”
