Parcel delivery management software provider nShift has partnered with logistics provider Fin to offer retailers access to its zero-emission delivery options for the final-mile delivery of their products.
According to Shopify, around half of consumers report a willingness to pay more for ‘environmentally friendly’ products or services, while 41% of shoppers will abandon their shopping carts if their preferred delivery provider was not available.
Founded in 2022, Fin uses only e-cargo-bikes and electric vans to ensure deliveries are emissions-free and traffic congestion is reduced. nShift customers can access this service in London, with expansion into other UK cities including Birmingham, Leeds and Manchester expected in the coming months. Fin plans to grow into central Europe later in 2024.
Ian Russell, director of carrier partnerships at nShift, said, “We’re pleased to add Fin to our growing library of net-zero carriers. This vital offering comes at a time when pending regulation demands that sustainable shipping is no longer a nice-to-have and when companies must do more than talk about their values, but instead, make them clear and tangible.”
Rich Pleeth, CEO and co-founder of Fin, added, “Being integrated into nShift is huge for Fin, being able to tap into nShift’s extensive and well-established customer base. This has accelerated our offering of zero-emissions and sustainable parcel delivery. Our commitment to sustainability is more than just a business strategy – it’s in our company’s DNA and encompasses protecting both the planet and people, all while maintaining profitability.”
