The fulfillment of the current Global Development (Agenda 2030) requires the redesign of business logistics networks due to the significant socio-environmental impacts caused by this sector. Despite rapid growth, logistics management focused on sustainability needs to overcome relevant barriers, such as the lack of process transparency, supply chain traceability, and the consequent increase in negative environmental impacts. In an effort to analyze the sustainable logistics scenario in a sample of Brazilian companies, this research considered the 78 companies that make up the portfolio of the second quarter of 2024 of the Brazilian Stock Exchange's Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE B3). The methodology implemented derives from a previous stage of this research, in which a business logistics analysis methodology, called SustainLogTrack, was developed. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 9, 11, and 12 were selected for analysis, and each company received scores based on the criteria established by the methodology. The results were extensive and could be evaluated according to business sector, average score by methodology indicator, and average score by selected SDGs. The analysis of these results demonstrates how much logistics still needs to evolve to become truly sustainable in Brazil, as the selected companies operate nationwide, with significant daily volumes moved in their supply chains.
