In January of this year GEODIS committed to the Science Based Targets Initiative. GEODIS´ global targets are to reduce our scope 1 & 2 CO₂ emissions by 42% and to decreasing the carbon intensity of subcontracted transport (scope 3) by 2030 compared to 2022. GEODIS Denmark has just taken the first big step on this reduction journey and switched to 100% renewable energy already from January 2024.

“When we started the process, we were looking for a more low-carbon alternative to what we had before. We chose EWII* and now our electricity is 100% renewable. This means we have reduced our CO₂ footprint by almost 40 tons per year. We are very proud to support this very necessary and important initiative and to have taken a significant leap towards reaching our target,” says Kent Husted, Managing Director, GEODIS Denmark.

Under the terms of the EWII certificate, which is valid from 01.01.2024 to 31.12.2025, the energy supplier certifies that GEODIS Denmark purchases its entire electricity consumption as renewable electricity. EWII ensures that 100% of the electricity consumption comes from sources such as wind turbines, solar panels, hydroelectric power, and biomass.

In line with its efforts to reduce its carbon footprint, GEODIS Denmark has also changed all lighting to LED and bought new computer screens, that use a third less electricity than previous screens. In addition, the company offers four charging points for electric vehicles at each of its branches in Kastrup and Vejle, and is planning to expand this later this year.

“As a company and as an employer, GEODIS places social issues at the heart of its concerns. One of our seven Golden Rules that form the basis of our operations, is “Be a good citizen”. This underlines our efforts to focus on developing low-carbon solutions, reducing the impact of our activities on the environment, and continuously improving the health, safety and well-being of our employees. The EWII certificate is an important step on our journey towards developing environmentally friendly solutions for all our stakeholders,” says Thomas Kraus, Regional President & CEO of GEODIS EUROPE

GEODIS DANMARK SKIFTER SIT ELEKTRICITETSFORBRUG TIL 100 % VEDVARENDE ENERGI

I januar 2024 forpligtede GEODIS sig til Science Based Targets-initiative. GEODIS’ globale mål, er at reducere scope 1 og 2 CO2-emissioner med 42% samt at mindske kulstofudledning i vores underleverandørtransport (scope 3) med 30% inden 2030 sammenlignet med 2022. GEODIS Danmark, har netop taget det første store skridt på denne reduktionsrejse, hvilket har betydet et vigtigt skifte til 100 % vedvarende energi allerede fra januar i år.

“Da vi startede processen, søgte vi et alternativ, der var mere CO2-neutralt end vores tidligere løsning. Vi valgte EWII* og nu er vores elektricitet 100 % vedvarende. Det betyder, at vi har reduceret vores CO2-fodaftryk med næsten 40 tons om året. Vi er utroligt stolte af at bakke op om dette nødvendige og vigtige tiltag og at tage et betydeligt skridt mod at opnå vores mål.” udtaler Kent Husted, Managing Director hos GEODIS Danmark.

I henhold til EWII-certifikatet, som er gældende fra 01.01.2024 til 31.12.2025, bekræfter energileverandøren, at GEODIS Danmark dækker hele sit elforbrug med vedvarende energi. EWII garanterer, at 100 % af elektriciteten leveres fra vedvarende kilder, så som vindmøller, solpaneler, vandkraft og biomasse.

I tråd med indsatsen for at reducere sit CO2-aftryk, har GEODIS Danmark også ændret al belysning til LED og købt nye computerskærme, der bruger en tredjedel mindre strøm end tidligere skærme. Derudover tilbyder virksomheden fire ladepunkter til elbiler i hver af sine afdelinger i Kastrup og Vejle, og planlægger at udvide dette senere i år.

“Som virksomhed og arbejdsgiver prioriterer GEODIS sociale spørgsmål højt. En af vores syv ‘Golden Rules’, som er fundamentet for vores virksomhed, er: ‘Vær en god medborger’. Dette understreger vores engagement i at udvikle CO2-neutrale løsninger, mindske vores aktiviteters miljøpåvirkning og kontinuerligt forbedre vores medarbejderes sundhed, sikkerhed og trivsel. EWII-certifikatet markerer et vigtigt skridt på vores vej mod at udvikle mere bæredygtige løsninger for vores interessenter,” Udtaler Thomas Kraus, Regional Præsident og CEO for GEODIS EUROPE.

Global technology powerhouse, Lenovo, has presented GEODIS with the Logistics Sustainability Excellence Award at their recent annual Global Supplier Conference 2024 in Shenzhen, China.

Since 2019, GEODIS has worked closely with Lenovo to navigate the ever-evolving supply chain landscape throughout the pandemic and after, ensuring their products reach major destinations across all continents.  GEODIS provides air, sea, and road freight services on all major trade lanes with the principal origin being China.  Over the past 5 years, teams from GEODIS and Lenovo have collaborated together to reduce lead times, control expense, streamline flows, all with the goal of CO₂ emission reduction.

Lenovo has set ambitious GHG reduction targets for 2030 on its scopes 1, 2 and 3 and is committed to reach net-zero by 2050. This commitment has been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), making Lenovo one of the pioneers among PC and smartphone manufacturers with a net-zero target validated by that organization. As for GEODIS, the Group has pledged to reduce its scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 42% and the carbon intensity of subcontracted transport (scope 3) by 30% by 2030 compared to 2022.  As part of this strong commitment on both sides, GEODIS and Lenovo have entered a long-term exclusive agreement on a customized and flexible “insetting” solution for Lenovo to participate in achieving approximately 80 % CO2 reduction through a fuel switch to Sustainable Marine Fuel (SMF). SMF offers a low-carbon alternative fuel option for ocean freight and mitigates ocean transportation’s impact on climate change. Additionally, GEODIS is exploring with Lenovo to implement a solution to rate, route and allocate volumes on the aircraft type generating the least amount of emission.

Chris Cahill, GEODIS’ Managing Director, Middle East and Indian Sub-Continent, who received the award, said, ”I am deeply honored to receive the Logistics Sustainability Excellence award on behalf of GEODIS. We thank Lenovo for this recognition and the opportunity to partner in reducing emissions throughout their supply chain. This award is testament to the dedication of our teams around the globe who have been working closely with our clients and partners for many years to develop innovative and sustainable solutions to reduce our impact on the environment.”

SINGAPORE – June 3^rd 2024 – GEODIS,a leading global logistics provider,  and L-Acoustics, the industry leader in premium professional sound, opened their new regional distribution center in Singapore. The distribution center, the first for L-Acoustics in the Asia Pacific region, is a testament to the manufacturer’s commitment to this strategic and growing market.

“Our mission is to strengthen our ties with clients, creating a hub from which we can provide ideal support,” explains Tim Zhou, CEO APAC at L-Acoustics. “The new warehouse will enable elevated customer service and faster delivery for their important projects.”

All L-Acoustics solutions are manufactured in Europe and prior to the opening of the Singapore distribution centre, orders for customers in the Asia Pacific region were fulfilled from France. The new centre will allow the company to better support clients throughout the region, shortening delivery times and streamlining the supply chain.

L-Acoustics and GEODIS have grown a global partnership which began in 2018 when GEODIS was trusted with the distribution of the manufacturer’s products in France and Europe, with GEODIS providing L-Acoustics with global end-to-end logistics solutions covering freight,  and customs and trade compliance management. The choice to partner with GEODIS for the launch of a new distribution centre in Singapore stems from the company’s supply chain expertise and track record in setting up bonded warehouses which demand licensed storage facilities with robust security measures, skilled personnel and operational capabilities aligned with local customs regulations.  The Singapore distribution centre is a bonded/zero-GST (Goods and Services Tax — GST) facility.

“Today marks a pivotal moment for L-Acoustics as we expand our regional logistics hub network with the help of our partner GEODIS, aiming to bring our customers the same level of service worldwide” says Hervé Guillaume, CEO at L-Acoustics Group.  “The foundation of our relationship with GEODIS is built on a shared spirit of innovation and performance, and a people-first mindset.  Together, we champion hyper-care for our partners throughout all our operations.”

“This recognition of our shared values reaffirms that our commitment to excellence and care is valued by our partners,” commented Onno Boots, President and CEO of Asia Pacific and Middle East, GEODIS, “It is a testament to the strong relationships we have built, the service we provide, and the trust we’ve earned. Together, we will continue to raise the bar of excellence and support L-Acoustics in their growth.”

GEODIS, a world leader in transport and logistics, announced it has strengthened its temperature-controlled pharmaceutical shipment capabilities in Europe by obtaining IATA’s Center of Excellence for Independent Validators in Pharmaceutical Logistics (CEIV Pharma) certification for its Copenhagen site.  GEODIS now has a total of 28 CEIV Pharma certified sites across its global network in the Americas, Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Europe.

Kent Husted, Managing Director of GEODIS Denmark, who is heading a team of 140 professionals located in Copenhagen, Vejle and Odense “Denmark is one of the leading countries in the world when it comes to research, development and production of pharmaceuticals. The requirements are strict in terms of quality and selection of suppliers, which is why it made perfect sense to choose the IATA CEIV Pharma Certification for GEODIS Denmark,” he said. “Our most important goal, in general, is to help all our customers by being a good growth partner and creating quality in everything we do. When it comes to pharmaceutical transports, we have a solid global setup that can handle all transports which require temperature control. All employees involved in Pharma transport have received the right training and know what is needed to deliver the products safely to the end users and patients”, continued Husted

At its site in Copenhagen, GEODIS provides a cross dock service with a temperature range of +2°C to +8°C and +15°C to +25°C, complimented by comprehensive air, ocean and road solutions.  Strategically located for easy access to both Copenhagen airport and ocean port facilities, this hub ensures seamless transportation of goods. Pharma and Healthcare logistics is a worldwide GEODIS expertise and the company has already attracted a number of major Pharma and Healthcare customers.

“Through our global pharma and healthcare network we can offer tailor-made solutions for our customers that comply with the requirements of GDP (Good Distribution Practice) transport. Part of our ambition is to further develop our global end-to-end logistics solutions. With last year’s acquisition of trans-o-flex in Germany, we added a wide range of services for time-critical deliveries to our portfolio and offer a fast, reliable and time-definite delivery service, which will be extended to other European countries in the coming months. As a first step in Denmark, with a newly built part of our warehouse solely for our pharma customers, we can ensure that the products are temperature monitored, before they are to be shipped across the world, whether that would be by air, ocean or road transport”, adds Thomas Kraus, President & CEO of GEODIS EUROPE.

The IATA CEIV Pharma (Center of Excellence for Independent Validators in Pharmaceutical Logistics) certification ensures that facilities, equipment, operations, and personnel meet the appropriate applicable standards, guidelines and regulations expected of a pharmaceutical manufacturer and logistics provider. It helps organizations and the entire air cargo supply chain achieve pharmaceutical handling excellence, while addressing the industry’s need for more safety, security, compliance, and efficiency through a globally consistent and recognized pharmaceutical-product handling certification.
