Our approach to corporate sustainability

Thinking of tomorrow, today

Sustainable thinking and responsible action are integral to our corporate culture. They guide all areas of our organisation – from the executive level to regional and branch management and our central functions.

“We know that a long path still lies ahead of us before we reach our vision ‚Emissions = Net Zero by 2050‘. But what matters is that we pursue this goal with determination – and become better year after year.”

Felix & Jens Fiege
Holistic. Now. Together.

As a logistics company with strong roots and a forward-looking mindset, we are consistently working to reduce our CO2e footprint. Achieving our climate goals – which we monitor and develop continually – is an absolute priority for us.

To this end, we are focusing on expanding climate-friendly transportation solutions, implementing resource-efficient waste management practices, and steadily increasing the number of energy-efficient sites across our network.

As a family business, it is in our DNA to think long-term.

We are shaping the transition towards sustainable development and show what sustainable logistics will look like in the future.

It is our goal to pass a healthy, climate neutral enterprise to the next generation.

Our sustainability strategy

Our overarching goal is to pass the company to the next, i.e., sixth generation. Naturally, we will only want to hand over the reins of our family business if it is healthy and climate positive.

FIEGE Group Strategy 2030

In 2025, we continued to advance our FIEGE Group Strategy by further refining our sustainability goals. Current economic conditions and evolving market dynamics underscore the growing importance of transitioning to decarbonised logistics, expanding circular-economy practices and accelerating the commercialisation of sustainable logistics solutions.

Increasing expectations from investors, customers, and consumers – combined with the ongoing development and launch of innovative green logistics products – are significantly driving this transformation forward.

At the centre of our efforts are our customers’ needs and the added value we create for them. Through sustainable solutions, we empower our partners to meet their own sustainability targets and differentiate themselves in a competitive market.

Our targeted sustainability initiatives actively support this transformation. They range from the consistent use of renewable energy to fostering circular-economy solutions and driving a measurable reduction in emissions.

At the same time, we meet growing regulatory requirements and create tangible value for our customers – for example, by providing transparent emissions data and delivering innovative, sustainable logistical services.
