The call for sustainable shipping is getting real. The transportation sector is the largest U.S. contributor to greenhouse gas, accounting for 29% of emissions, according to the EPA.

Procurement, also sometimes known as purchasing, is the group responsible for acquiring components, services, and other materials to manufacture a company’s products and to keep the operation running.
