From this point, they will be able to centralize the merchandise they need and SEUR will make the deliveries twice a day with a 100% electric vehicle, to avoid the emission of polluting gases throughout the space. This point of sale will maintain a continuous schedule all the week during the days of the event, moreover, it will open on weekends, so that uninterrupted service will be given during all the days of the Fair.
Also, on Friday, June 2, the company will have its own space in which it will carry out different activities for visitors, such as a photobooth to create their own bookmark or a face painting for the little ones.
A new step towards sustainability
This collaboration agreement between SEUR and the Book Fair reinforces the company's commitment to sustainability and its support for culture. SEUR aims to become the international reference in sustainable distribution and, therefore, it has launched different strategies, such as the development of an ecological fleet that already accounts for 13% of the company's total and that will increase by 2030 with the incorporation of 3,000 electric vehicles. Likewise, SEUR has a large network of Out of Home solutions such as, for example, the Pickup network, which integrates more than 4,000 points between convenience stores and lockers. In this way, the company offers a sustainable solution for the environment, by reducing by 63% the CO2 emissions associated with last mile services.
On the other hand, SEUR has deployed in Madrid and in several European cities a pioneering program for the measurement of air quality, through sensors installed in delivery vehicles, pickup stores and urban hubs that, with Pollutrack laser technology, measure in real time, street by street, the quality of air particles.
