Cycle & Carriage Singapore will be collaborating with Grocery Logistics of Singapore (GLS), the logistics arm of the FairPrice Group, as they opt to utilise electric vehicles in logistics and delivery.
In line with this, Cycle & Carriage Singapore will be supplying 10 Citroën ë-Dispatch units, and their pertinent charging stations to GLS to be on the road by the end of November.
Able to cover a distance of 339 kilometres with a full charge and requiring only 48 minutes to reach an 80 percent charge from zero percent, the Citroën ë-Dispatch units will form the first pilot fleet of electric vans to be used by GLS.
Marking its foray into the use of electric vehicles for logistical purposes, GLS' shift to electric, rather than petrol-powered vehicles with Cycle & Carriage enables them to reduce their carbon footprint while maintaining their high standards of service.
"GLS continues to do our part for the environment and our latest initiative to augment our fleet with electric vehicles is part of our overall holistic effort to promote a circular and low-carbon economy," Zeng Qiao Jia, Chief Supply Chain Officer of FairPrice Group Supply Chain shares, adding "Beyond the environmental gains of reducing our carbon footprint, we are eager also to reap greater cost savings from the total cost of ownership of running an electrified fleet, where resources may be redeployed to further advance our supply chain capabilities. We urge our industry peers to join us on this whole-of-nation sustainability effort and to leave behind a greener world for our children."
"It's great to see key industry players making the shift to electric vehicles as we work towards a cleaner, more sustainable environment. We look forward to assisting GLS to help ease their adoption of electric vehicles," shares Dawn Pan, Director of Multi-Franchise Operations at Cycle & Carriage Singapore.
