Innovations in the Marine Economy - Innovation in the Supply Chain

Island Institute Season 4 Episode 5

When we talk about “innovation” a lot of times what we’re talking about is how companies increase profit and efficiency, while also improving the environment and sustainability. We’re going to spend this episode focusing on innovations in the supply chain and, specifically, how one Maine company, Luke’s Lobster, worked with Island Institute to assess the carbon footprint of a single lobster - from bait to plate. We’ll hear how Luke’s Lobster is making changes along that supply chain to lower the carbon footprint of the lobster they process, pack, ship, and serve.
