How Black Friday Deliveries could have a lower environmental impact

Retailers don't have to wait for electric vehicles to cut emissions, operational efficiency can make a difference today. Black Friday keeps getting bigger every year. In the US alone, online sales will pass $10 billion over the weekend. Millions of parcels hit the roads, releasing millions of tonnes of CO in just a few days. And Ireland is no exception. The average Irish consumer is expected to spend €329 over the Black Friday period, with 63% of sales taking place online. That means a surge in home deliveries right across the country and a sharp rise in vehicle emissions as vans race to meet tight delivery windows (PWC). Sustainability strategies for Black Friday Some of the larger retailers are trying to get greener, but their plans are far off. IKEA has targets for electric deliveries by 2028, while Amazon and Currys aim for net zero by 2040. These goals are important, but they take time. Charging infrastructure, vehicle supply, and range limitations mean electric fleets cannot scale overnight. "The problem is that everyone's waiting for the future to fix the present," says David Walsh, CEO of SmartRoutes. "If retailers focused on using what they already have more efficiently, they could cut a fifth of delivery emissions almost overnight." Smarter planning can make a big difference. By consolidating stops, reducing duplicated routes, and grouping orders efficiently, retailers can reduce total distance driven by 15 to 20 percent. Over a peak week like Black Friday, that is the equivalent of taking more than 300,000 cars off the road. "The final mile is where a lot of the waste happens," Walsh adds. "You'll see two vans from the same retailer passing each other on the same street. That is completely avoidable." Consumers are also making more sustainable choices. Many choose to group deliveries if it means fewer trips. That creates pressure for retailers to reduce delivery emissions, not just focus on packaging or product sustainability. There is also a clear business case. Every mile avoided saves fuel and time. For large retailers, the savings can be significant, while still meeting customer expectations. Black Friday is the busiest delivery period of the year, but it also offers the biggest opportunity to make a measurable difference. Electrification will shape the future, but smarter delivery planning can reduce emissions today.

What does real transformation look like when the pressure is on and assumptions break? We sit down with two Currys leaders who have lived the good, the bad and the ugly of digital change and found a way to turn urgency into value. Their journeys—one from creative studios into tech delivery, the other from e‑commerce into enterprise architecture—show how curiosity, clear intent and stakeholder empathy can move mountains.We get specific about crisis execution and lasting impact. You'll hear how contactless click‑and‑collect launched in just three weeks to keep essential tech in homes, and how ShopLive evolved into RepairLive to blend human expertise with video support. We explore the less glamorous side too: when a vendor programme inflates beyond reason, the right call can be to pause, modernise what works, migrate to the cloud and simplify APIs instead of forcing a risky replacement. The same mindset guides their data centre exit, where migration methods changed as they learned more about heritage systems and business risk.Culture threads through every win. A thriving women's network that spans corporate, retail and supply chain, plus flexible hybrid working, widens the talent pool and builds psychological safety—the spark that turns whiteboards into engines for better ideas. We connect diversity to outcomes: teams that mirror customers make smarter choices, move faster and create products people actually use.Looking ahead, we dive into hyper‑personalisation beyond one‑off campaigns and the promise of GenAI to accelerate content, support and colleague tools—always paired with human empathy for complex moments. The biggest challenge? Pace. Balancing ambitious roadmaps with commercial reality, prioritising ruthlessly, and revisiting assumptions before they ossify. Expect practical lessons on stakeholder buy‑in, outcome‑led planning, and the courage to pivot when facts change.If this conversation gives you ideas for your own roadmap, share it with a colleague, hit follow, and leave a quick review—what's the smartest pivot you've made lately?Visit AND Digital's website here for the latest episodes and to stay informed.

Folge 187: Aufgenommen live auf der Rolling Pin Convention in Düsseldorf sprechen Carsten Henn und Buddy Zipper mit Kilian Holland, der in die großen Fußstapfen seines legendären Vaters tritt – als neuer Kopf des Alten Gewürzamts. Was wie eine klassische Nachfolge klingt, ist in Wahrheit eine Geschichte über Mut, Trauer, Leidenschaft und den Willen, ein Lebenswerk nicht nur zu bewahren, sondern mit neuer Seele zu füllen.Kilian erzählt offen von der Nacht, in der alles anders wurde – und von den zweieinhalb Jahren harter Arbeit, die folgten. Vom Abschiednehmen und Neuanfangen, vom Loslassen und Gestalten. Er spricht über die Magie handverlesener Gewürze, über Vanille, Pfeffer und Currys, aber auch über Werte wie Ehrlichkeit, Demut und Teamgeist. Und er zeigt, wie man ein Unternehmen rettet, ohne dessen Seele zu verlieren.Zwischen Röstanlage, Labor und Familiengeschichte entfaltet sich das Porträt eines Mannes, der gelernt hat, Verantwortung anzunehmen, ohne den Humor zu verlieren. Man spürt in jeder Minute seine Dankbarkeit, seine Liebe zum Handwerk und den tiefen Respekt vor dem, was sein Vater geschaffen hat.Ein Gespräch voller Wärme, Klarheit und Inspiration – über Familie, Führung und die Kunst, aus bitteren Momenten etwas Schönes zu machen. Ein Kapitel, das nachklingt wie der Duft frischer Gewürze: intensiv, ehrlich und unverwechselbar.#KilianHolland #AltesGewürzamt #Gewürzmanufaktur #IngoHolland#SOULFOOD # SOULFOODPASSIONISTAS # CARSTENHENN #GASTROSURIVIAL #BUDDYZIPPER #GASTROPODCAST #KULINARIK #STERNEKUECHE #KOCHGOTT #gastrosurivial #sterneküche #foodporn #foodlover #instafood #gastronomie #podcast @buddyzipper @carstenhenn @soulfoodpassionistas

Some of the best campaigns don't come from massive budgets or high-gloss production. They come from leaning into what feels real. Currys' Gen Z ads are a perfect example: low-fi, deadpan, and unexpectedly brilliant.In this episode, we're unpacking what made this retail campaign a breakout success with the help of our special guest David Hooker, Director of Brand at Printful and Printify.Together, they explore what B2B marketers can learn from embracing scrappy creativity, building brand affinity over awareness, and trusting that great content doesn't need to sell a product—it just needs to make people care.About our guest, David HookerDavid Hooker is the Director of Brand at Printify and Printful. He's an experienced Creative Director and Brand Manager. Built the Prezi Evangelism and Creative Services teams. Seasoned speaker, including TED-X Talk (see below). David built the Brand and PR function at TravelPerk, securing coverage in Wired, TechCrunch, Sky News, Al Jazeera, Financial Times, Business Insider, Handelsblatt, Süddeutsche Zeitung, and the BBC. He's currently helping empower entrepreneurs at Printify and Printful. What B2B Companies Can Learn From Currys' Gen Z ads:You don't need a big budget to make standout content. Some of the most impactful marketing doesn't come from a fancy studio—it comes from a phone camera, an employee, and a smart idea. David says, “You don't have to spend thousands and thousands of dollars to make really good, great content that works.” Don't wait for budget approvals. Focus on originality and execution.B2B still means you're selling to people. Behind every buying committee is a group of humans—ones who laugh, scroll, and crave connection just like everyone else. David says, “You are B2B, but that B is a population of people… you can create great quality content that brightens up people's day, that generates awareness and an affinity for your brand.” Lead with humanity, not just logic.Ignore the naysayers—go make something people love. Not every campaign needs to hit every KPI to be worth doing. Sometimes the boldest ideas face the most resistance—and deliver the most impact. David says, “I'm sure there was someone in the meeting room… who went, ‘How are they gonna know where our stores are?' But the naysayer was wrong. If you make really great quality content that people connect with, enjoy—it's going to do good things for your marketing.” Make the thing. Publish the thing. Let the audience prove it out.Quote*“ You don't have to spend thousands and thousands of dollars to make really great content that works. Investing in the content and the quality of the content always pays off… Your B2B, but that B is a population of people, right? You've got an ecosystem of decision makers, but they're all human beings at least for the moment…You can create great quality content that brightens up people's day, that generates awareness and an affinity for your brand, without spending a lot if you focus on the content itself.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet David Hooker, Director of Brand at Printify and Printful[01:08] Why Currys' Gen Z ads?[02:35] The Origin Story of Printful and Printify[09:32] The Power of Merch[13:38] The Demand for Personalization[24:11] Understanding the Currys' Gen Z Ad Campaign[33:11] B2B Marketing Lessons from the Gen Z Currys' Ads[40:41] Authenticity in Advertising[52:21] Advice for Brand Leaders[54:26] Importance of Visual LiteracyLinksConnect with David on LinkedInLearn more about PrintifyLearn more about PrintfulAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.
