DSV introduces Green Logistics to accelerate green transition of the industry
DSV, a global transport and logistics company, announces the launch of Green Logistics – a highly ambitious set of green offerings within the industry focusing on reducing emissions for DSV’s customers. The Green Logistics solutions will be available for companies of all sizes globally and across all major transportation modes.
Green Logistics is DSV’s new set of customer offerings aiming at accelerating the green transition in the global supply chains. “With four tailored solutions ranging from CO2 reporting, green supply chain design and optimisation to sustainable fuel offerings across all transportation modes and carbon offsetting, DSV wants to help customers reduce their CO2 emissions from transportation without restraining their businesses,” says the company.
The focus of Green Logistics is on addressing our customers’ CO2 emissions and thereby also DSV’s emissions from subcontracted freight. In parallel with the introduction of Green Logistics, DSV is underlining its commitment to take on the responsibility to drive the industry towards a greener future where world trade is conducted with consideration to preserve our nature.
“DSV is determined to support the green transition of our industry. As the world’s third-largest transport and logistics company, we take our responsibility seriously. We are ready to act together with all our partners and customers so that we can reduce CO2 emissions and mitigate the negative impact of climate change. By providing our customers with our new Green Logistics offerings, we are going to analyse and advise our customers to rethink their supply chains and enable them to conduct their business in a more sustainable way,” says Jens Bjørn Andersen, Group CEO, DSV.
In 2020, DSV set approved Science Based Targets (SBT) with ambitious targets for greenhouse gas reductions across scope 1, 2 and 3 by 2030 from a 2019 baseline. More than 98 percent of the CO2 emissions registered by DSV are generated as scope 3 emissions compiled by all types of subcontracted freight.
“With Green Logistics, DSV is taking a significant leap from commitment to action. Today, we bring forward four solutions that will enable us to keep supply chains flowing in a more sustainable way and with respect for our nature. But we can only move the sector and cut down CO2 emissions if we have our customers’ engagement and a collaborative approach. We must act together,” says Andersen.
The Green Logistics solutions will be applicable for all major transportation modes across all markets. With Green Logistics, DSV is providing a one-stop shop for green transport and logistics solutions.
