A business can choose to take action to operate responsibly each day no matter what effect it may have on the books. PFL Logistics is a shining example of a business making such a decision in challenging times. Before the Coronavirus Pandemic was set loose on the world, Construction on a large solar array (or solar farm) began on land owned by the company directly behind their headquarters as the new year of 2020 rolled in. To get an idea of the scale of this new project, it can be said that PFL’s solar farm is the largest of its kind that is non-utility-owned in the Evansville area. With ideal sunny conditions, the new solar farm can output on average 5.3 megawatts of power per day. All the while, the 140,000 sq ft PFL facility utilizes on average 4 megawatts of power a day. Thus, the company is generating more than it uses. This essentially lowers their carbon footprint to zero. PFL has, in a nutshell, gone green.

Key business decisions are made both during times of normality and during times of devastation. Each has the ability to resonate positively with a company‚ community and the people that populate it. PFL Logistics has taken two big leaps in the first quarter of 2020 alone. First in staying open to help fight the Coronavirus, and second in putting forth the capital to construct a solar array to make every operating day an eco-friendly day. It is because of this that PFL has risen to become an example of how a responsible business operates and leaves a lasting impression upon its community.
