France’s FM Logistic Plans To Develop Green Trucks In India
MUMBAI: French company FM Logistic plans to develop green vehicles for environmentally sustainable road cargo transportation in India, in keeping with the government’s push for electric vehicles.
“It may take several years, but in India too we need to move to green energy, even in transport and logistics,” CEO Jean-Cristophe Machet told ET.
The company plans a pilot project in India in the next one year, said Stephane Descarpentries, director, Asia operations, adding the company is already in talks with auto-makers for the same. “We already have many in Europe and we hope to start in China in the next month. In India, we will likely have a pilot project in a year. When you see the pollution in cities like Mumbai or Delhi, you realise how important it is to move towards green transportation and green logistics,” he said.
