On September 6, 2024, Yellowings Delivery Services collaborated with Jubilant FoodWorks to introduce India's first 100% electric reefer pickup truck. This initiative aims to revolutionize cold chain logistics by promoting sustainability and operational efficiency, supporting the country’s transition toward environmentally friendly transportation in the food delivery and supply chain sector.
