Konvoy Shortlisted for the 2024 Footprint Drinks Sustainability Awards: Pioneering Innovations in Packaging

Footprint Drinks Sustainability Awards: Innovations in Packaging

We’re excited to announce that Konvoy has been shortlisted for the 2024 Footprint Drinks Sustainability Awards in the Innovations in Packaging category! This recognition highlights the sustainability initiatives of leading businesses within the beverage industry, and we are proud to stand alongside some titans of the industry.

 

Our journey to this milestone has been driven by our commitment to reducing the environmental impact of the beverage industry. At the heart of our innovation is Konvoy's Katch IoT (Internet of Things) tracking device, a game-changing solution for managing returnable assets such as kegs. Our technology ensures that each keg is tracked in real time, improving efficiency and prolonging its lifespan, which in turn reduces waste and additional spending.

Industry Giants on the Same Stage

 

Being shortlisted alongside industry giants like Britvic Aqua Libra, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, Remy Cointreau, Sipsmith, and Sustainable Wine Solutions is a testament to the trailblazing impact of our solution. Each of these businesses is leading the way with innovative approaches to sustainability.

The Konvoy Team: Passionate About Change

Our team is made up of experienced leaders from the drinks and hospitality sectors who share a deep passion for driving positive change in the industry. Our goal? To reduce the environmental footprint of beverage packaging through smarter, more sustainable solutions. Reusable stainless-steel kegs play a central role in this, significantly cutting down the need for single-use packaging.

 

But it doesn't stop there. Our Katch IoT tracking technology goes beyond just tracking; it optimizes the use of kegs and other returnable assets. This ensures that these items are reused efficiently and that their lifecycle is maximized, helping us contribute to a circular economy and a greener future.
