GEODIS’ Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy has been developed in line with one of the seven Golden Rules of its business excellence program, “Be a good citizen”. GEODIS is committed to providing its customers with sustainable logistics solutions that address social, environmental, and ethical issues. GEODIS is focused on developing low-carbon solutions, reducing the impact of its activities on the environment, continuously improving the health, safety and well-being of its employees, and acting ethically and responsibly in its relations with its partners.
“CSR is at the heart of our strategic plan to significantly reduce our carbon footprint and be recognised as a sustainable logistics leader. To ensure the highest standards of supply chain resilience and sustainability, we are constantly striving to improve our CSR strategy,” said Onno Boots, Regional President & CEO of Asia Pacific and Middle East, “We do this by ensuring an ongoing dialogue and collaborating with our customers, employees, partners and professional organisations like TAPA.
