Toyota Logistic Design Competition 2022
Toyota Logistic Design Competition 2022 is now open for entries!
The Toyota Material Handling Europe launches its Toyota Logistic Design Competition 2022, inviting all university design students and recent graduates to invite their propasal that respond to the this year theme 'urban micrologistics'.
Toyota Material Handling Europe is calling for submissions to the Toyota Logistic Design Competition 2022 this time dedicated to urban micrologistics.
More than half of the world’s population live in urban areas. In Europe, the proportion is over eighty per cent. Supplying all these people with the stuff they need is a huge undertaking. In the Paris region alone, some 4.3 million deliveries are made every week. It’s everything from fish fingers to face packs, from pharmaceuticals to photocopiers, from books to boots to beef to bags to batting bats. We could go on.
In the 2022 Toyota Logistic Design Competition organiser is asking you to get your head around the enormous issues involved in urban micrologistics, suggesting ways of dealing with the rising problems, as well as improving expediency. The stumbling blocks we’re up against when it comes to urban logistics are many and variegated. For one thing, cities are getting more and more congested, so cars are increasingly banned in city centres. This move is also a way of combatting pollution.
Organiser would like you to think of ways of dealing with the ever-increasing sea of goods hitting our cities. The staggering number of deliveries needs new and better solutions. Integrating micrologistics with micromobility, is one way of looking at it.
