Sustainable last mile delivery and line haul

To ensure excellence in our deliveries to our customer, we have initiated steps to make our last-mile delivery and line-hauls more sustainable. The measures include among others, electrification of our last-mile fleet, use of sustainable fuels in line-haul, and network optimization, all in close collaboration with our subcontractors in this area.

Our approach for sustainable last mile & line haul:

  • Electrify >66 % of our last-mile delivery vehicles by 2030
  • We grow the sustainable fuels and electrification share of our heavy-duty truck transport to >30% by 2030.
  • Reduce fuel consumption through permanent network improvements
  • Support development and market availability of hydrogen and electric trucks
  • Carbon insetting and book & claim product offerings for end customers
  • Sustainable transport solutions from our subcontractors through standards, education, and incentives to invest in green transport solutions
  • Enable employee contribution through trainings, projects, and sustainability programs.
