Coles in partnership with Toll Group is proud to welcome two new electric prime movers to our grocery delivery network in Western Australia. The Volvo FM battery electric prime movers will replace conventional diesel-powered trucks, saving approximately 100 tonnes of CO2 emissions per vehicle annually and are expected to complete up to 52 deliveries to Coles stores across Perth each week. Ian Kitching, State Transport Manager at Coles, said “This partnership marks a significant milestone in our ongoing efforts to reduce emissions associated with our transportation network. Welcoming our first electric heavy vehicles to our fleet in Perth is more than just a technological upgrade, it’s a long-term investment in developing a more sustainable supply chain.” #ProudlyColes Matt Swindells | Tony O'Toole | Jo Hammond | David Clark | Ian Kitching | Nick Vrckovski | Thomas Knudsen | Michael Freestone | Wayne Schoenauer | Jorge Moreira | Vaughan Irving

Fantastic first step. Reimagine a doubling in the carbon savings from a circular economy perspective. Upcycling Coles waste for low carbon fuels, greater truck range, less recharge infrastructure and no landfill. The innovation we are working to provide across ANZ.
