Averitt Celebrates 20 Years of a Sustainable Partnership with SmartWay

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. - Averitt, a leading transportation and logistics company, commemorates two decades of commitment as a founding member of the SmartWay program. Since joining the program, Averitt has demonstrated dedication to sustainability and environmental responsibility, advancing supply chain efficiency and reducing carbon footprints.

Averitt Fueling

Established in 2004, the SmartWay program, an initiative pioneered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), serves as a model of cooperation between public and private entities to promote sustainable practices within the freight transportation industry. By implementing rigorous measurement, benchmarking, and continual improvement strategies, SmartWay empowers companies to make informed decisions that enhance fuel efficiency and reduce emissions throughout their supply chains.

Averitt's ongoing partnership with SmartWay underscores its proactive approach to environmental stewardship. Since joining, Averitt has:

  • Reduced CO2 emissions by 36%
  • Reduced NOx emissions by 84%
  • Saved 5.4 million gallons of diesel fuel

"Averitt is honored to celebrate 20 years of partnership with the SmartWay program," said Gary Sasser, chief executive officer at Averitt. "Our longstanding commitment to sustainability is a core value that guides our operations and underscores our responsibility to future generations. We never stop looking for more environmentally friendly ways to do business. Because we know the choices we make today will directly affect the world we'll leave behind tomorrow."
