Syngenta Crop Protection, a global leader in agricultural innovation, and Maersk, a global logistics integrator, announced today the extension of their fourth-party logistics (4PL) partnership for an additional five years. This renewed collaboration underscores both companies’ commitment to responsible logistics through continuous supply chain optimisation and innovation.
A 4PL provider takes third-party logistics further by managing resources, technology, infrastructure, and other logistics providers to design, build, and deliver customised supply chain solutions. This concept is integral to Maersk’s Logistics & Services product offering and a key element of its strategy to provide its customers with leading supply chain management solutions from factory to final destination.
A cornerstone of the collaboration is the constant focus on more sustainable logistics, with both companies highly committed to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions throughout the supply chain. Maersk aims to achieve net zero GHG emissions across its business by 2040. Syngenta’s sustainability priorities are accelerating efforts to decarbonise its operations and set clear targets for sustainable operations. Under the collaboration, regular reporting on emissions and ongoing dialogue on sustainability outcomes are key determinants of business performance.
Over the past eight years, Syngenta and Maersk have successfully navigated major disruptions, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the Red Sea crisis, thanks to significantly increased resilience. They have also identified opportunities for reducing GHG emissions from Syngenta’s supply chain.
“We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Maersk, a company that shares our commitment to sustainability and innovation. Syngenta and Maersk have a strong alignment in prioritising sustainability and driving innovation. Our partnership has proven its value, and we look forward to achieving new milestones together by continuing to develop and implement cutting-edge solutions that optimise our supply chains, leveraging digital logistics and artificial intelligence,” said Mike Hollands,
Global Head of Production & Supply at Syngenta Crop Protection.
“The journey we are on with Syngenta underpins Maersk’s position as an integrated logistics provider. We thrive by the success of our customers and contribute to this by developing solutions that optimise and simplify their supply chains. We are always looking to innovate on behalf of our customers and add further value to their business,” added Dimitris Armenakis, Global Head of Managed by Maersk Product.
The extended partnership reinforces Syngenta’s and Maersk’s shared commitment to sustainability and innovation as industry leaders in driving efficient, resilient, and environmentally responsible supply chain solutions.
