Family-run bulk logistics service provider HOYER Group (HOYER) has reassessed its current medium and long-term emissions and safety targets in-line with its focus on ‘consistently’ pursuing its sustainability goals.
With more than 80% of the company’s kilometres travelled during delivery in 2021 undertaken using less carbon dioxide (CO2)-intensive intermodal methods of transport, the company aims to reduce its transport-related CO2 emissions by 10% by 2025.
