CDP, the non-profit organization that manages the world’s leading disclosure platform for investors, companies, cities, etc. with the aim of measuring their environmental impact, has positioned Logista Group as a “Supplier Engagement Leader” at a global level.
We are part of a small group of pioneering companies that stand out in the CDP’s annual Supplier Engagement Ranking (SER). This classification is a way of evaluating and stimulating the actions carried out by the 8,400 companies (and still growing. This year there has been a 7% increase compared to the previous one) that disclose their environmental data through CDP on annual basis. In order to rate the companies’ commitment to the climate in relation to their suppliers and their logistics chain, CDP investigated and questioned the participating companies via a questionnaire on aspects such as corporate governance; climate goals; level 3 emissions, and the commitment of its entire value chain to the fight against climate change.
Only 160 of these companies, just 3%, including the Logista Group, have received this well-deserved recognition.
We are frankly proud that our efforts and our firm commitment have been recognised, and we greatly appreciate the words of the global director of CDP value chains, Sonya BhonsleDexter Galvin, who wanted to congratulate this small group of companies of which we are part.
“Companies’ emissions don’t end at the factory door. In fact, CDP data shows a company’s supply chain emissions are over 11.4 times greater than its direct emissions on average. Meaningful corporate climate action means engaging with suppliers to reduce emissions across the value chain. Despite the challenges from COVID-19, in 2020 nearly 400 companies achieved a place on CDP’s Supplier Engagement Leaderboard. Congratulations to these companies – as a Supplier Engagement Leaders, they are driving the transition towards the net-zero sustainable economy”.
