The Northwest Seaport Alliance earns honors for environmental practices

The sustainability commitments of The Northwest Seaport Alliance have earned Inbound Logistics magazine’s 75 Green Supply Chain Partner honors.

The ports of Seattle and Tacoma have been honored for several years. This is the first time our partnership through the NWSA has been recognized.

One of seven U.S. port authorities selected, the NWSA was recognized for its efforts to reduce seaport-related emissions through the Northwest Ports Clean Air Strategy and find innovative solutions to manage stormwater runoff.

The trade magazine honored 75 organizations from various trade sectors, including ports, trucking companies, railroads, shipping lines, freight forwarders and air cargo carriers.

This is “a carefully curated list of 75 companies that go above and beyond to ensure their global supply chains are sustainable, and that their operations are socially and environmentally friendly,” according to the magazine article’s introduction. “These companies have spent years developing and implementing best practices to ensure the footprint they leave on the world is a positive one.”

The complete list of honored partners is featured in the magazine's June issue.
