How do you save a few billion trees and a billion bucks? Boot the box. Kick the carton. Punt the packaging.
More than a decade ago, Toyota began using returnable containers for shipping parts and accessories. The environmental impact so far: saving 220 million pounds of wood and 145 million pounds of cardboard, the equivalent of 2.7 billion trees. It also adds up to $1 billion in cost savings for the company...and that’s no pulp fiction.
Avalon represents Toyota’s commitment to American manufacturing: the flagship nameplate is designed and engineered in the U.S. and exclusively produced in Georgetown, Kentucky, by more than 8,000 team members. In fact, the Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Kentucky plant is the largest production facility for Toyota worldwide.
Plant celebrates milestone anniversary with $100K in donations to Kentucky organizations, debuts renovated Visitor Center.
