Fremont, CA (April 11, 2016) – AER Worldwide, a solutions provider of IT assets, reverse logistics and end-of-life processes, was recognized by their customer, Cisco, for their efforts in Climate Leadership within the supply chain.

Cisco was recently recognized by the EPA as the winner of the 2016 Climate Leadership Award for the category of Supply Chain Leadership. This award is given to Cisco for engaging all suppliers to have strong sustainability programs. Primarily focusing on GHG emission reduction, build capabilities, tracking progress and environmental impacts.

Cisco recognized AER Worldwide by stating; “One of the reasons Cisco received this award is because Cisco has a supply chain whose members (like AER) are working everyday to be sustainable and reduce their footprint on the earth. I commend AER for all their efforts you are taking with regard to making your business kind to the earth. Those efforts are but one part that contributed to Cisco having a sustainable supply chain.”

“Our commitment to support, not only our customer’s efforts to succeed in a lower carbon footprint, but our duty as a sustainability company, as well, drives our passion.” explained AER Worldwide, CEO, Andre’ Weiglein. “Being a part of the success Cisco has had reaffirms our commitment to our environment.”

The effort in support of Cisco has been a three-year process, one that AER Worldwide has taken seriously, not only for the benefit of their customer, but also in making the world a better place. AER Worldwide, being a recycler and IT Asset Management company, has a strong focus not only on lowering the global footprint for itself, but also for reducing that footprint for their customers.

Products must be made, we all require them and need them, but when a product has reached the end of its purpose, its lifecycle, AER Worldwide then provides environmentally safe and eco-friendly services to assist the manufacturer, retailer and end user, in disposing of their products in a way that keeps our planet clean.
