PerkUp is committed to reducing the environmental impact of corporate swag and gifting through sustainable sourcing, eco-friendly product offerings, and measurable carbon footprint reductions. Learn more at PerkUp Sustainability .
1. Source and Warehouse Globally
By sourcing and warehousing closer to recipients, PerkUp reduces long-distance shipping, lowers carbon emissions, and supports local businesses.
- Unlike traditional approaches that source all items from one continent and ship them worldwide, PerkUp uses a distributed warehousing network.
- This means products can be sourced and stored locally in regions across the globe, significantly reducing transportation distances.
- The result is a more sustainable, environmentally friendly model that also supports local economies and suppliers.
Example CO₂ Savings per Package:
- Europe: NYC → Paris (2.92 kg) vs. Berlin → Paris (0.16 kg) → 2.76 kg saved
- Brazil: NYC → São Paulo (4.2 kg) vs. Rio → São Paulo (0.06 kg) → 4.14 kg saved
- India: NYC → Mumbai (4.5 kg) vs. New Delhi → Mumbai (0.08 kg) → 4.42 kg saved
- Asia: NYC → Batam (5.5 kg) vs. Shanghai → Batam (0.09 kg) → 5.41 kg saved
