Embarking on a Greener Journey: The 2023 Sustainability Odyssey of Kuehne+Nagel

Eco-Voyages and Carbon Quests Charting new territories in environmental stewardship, Kuehne+Nagel has successfully navigated towards a cleaner future. The company’s eco-voyage led to a monumental 110,000-ton reduction in greenhouse gases, mirroring the noble work of 3.5 million trees. This green triumph was fueled by the acquisition of 26 million liters of Sustainable Aviation Fuel and 13,391 tons of Sustainable Marine Fuel.

Fleet of the Future The company’s commitment to innovation is evident in its 32% fleet of hybrid and electric vehicles — a 15% leap from the previous year. These modern chariots are the vanguard of Kuehne+Nagel’s mission to protect our blue planet’s oceans and seas. Through NACORA’s cargo insurance policies, a portion of proceeds aids the Marinе Megafauna Foundation, guardians of the deep, in their quest for oceanic conservation.

Solar Sentinels and Electric Envoys Harnessing the power of the sun, Kuehne+Nagel has installed solar panels across 86 locations, with ambitions for a sunnier 2024. The company’s global warehouses, spanning 6.5 million square meters, now bask in the glow of energy-efficient LED lighting.

Cultivating a Green Culture A testament to the company’s green ethos, Kuehne+Nagel has achieved a 10% reduction in electricity and water usage, while waste production saw a 14% decline—with a remarkable 65% recycling rate. These milestones reflect the deep-rooted environmental consciousness among the Kuehne+Nagel family.

A Global Tapestry of Talent Kuehne+Nagel’s commitment to diversity shines, with over 100 nationalities represented in its workforce. The company champions gender equality, with women holding 24% of senior management and 10% of top management positions. The inclusion journey continues, with increasing opportunities for individuals with disabilities.

Vision 2030: Navigating Towards Trust and Sustainability As a leading light in global logistics, Kuehne+Nagel pledges to be the most trusted partner in the industry, steering customers towards a horizon of sustainable growth.
