Abstract—Recently, the UK government passed legislation that introduces the 2050 net-zero goal, as well as the recent pandemic and net-zero emission targets that call for revolutions in the transportation logistics system. Forecasting dedicates to accurately predict in demand management, production planning, and transportation route optimization to contribute to a better transportation logistics system. Therefore, we must address the importance of forecasting in designing a proper transportation logistic system to achieve a net-zero future, and the food industry is worth discussing in this case. Two system drivers of forecasting accuracy are identified for the 2050 net-zero goal: the end-to-end collaborative logistic system, and the uncertainties addressed by the innovative forecasting tools, respectively document the importance of information flow and the necessity of an innovative subjective forecasting approach to meet the 2050 commitment.
