Question:
PT G Airlines is committed to providing the best service to consumers. Apart from that, G Airlines is also called to carry out corporate responsibility for the environment. One initiative is to use recycled cargo packaging materials. This recycled material has also been tested for its strength at an affordable cost. When compared to previous cargo packing materials, recycled materials are believed to have a positive impact on improving G Airlines' performance. Packaging services or packaging for environmentally friendly cargo shipments certified by Forest Stewardship Council or FSC. The company calls it the GIA Box, this environmentally friendly packaging material product is certified and has international standards.
However, GIAA was asked not to be rushed in deciding the use of these products because they had to consider the supply chain. Company leaders are asked to pay attention to the decisions taken to use environmentally friendly products for this packaging. If we pay attention to this, it is related to the financial performance of cargo unit companies, which are considered unable to determine the best formula.
Some information on financial components of cargo units and comparisons with catering units is provided in Table 1 and Table 2 below.
