DIMERCO NOTES STRIDES IN SUSTAINABILITY, GLOBAL CONNECTIVITY
February 28, 2024
Dimerco Express Group has announced a series of endeavours highlighting its commitment to sustainability and global expansion.
In a major step towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions associated with air travel, Dimerco said it has entered into a strategic agreement with Cathay Pacific for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).
Cathay's Corporate SAF Programme aligns with Dimerco's Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals. It also marks a "significant pledge" towards supporting the earth through practical action, Dimerco said.
Dimerco said its environmental initiatives have also been recognized with a B- score by the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), indicating an above-average performance in the intermodal transport and logistics sector, both in Asia and globally.
SAF Programme was signed by Frank Yau, head of cargo sales HK & GBA at Cathay Cargo, George Chiou, president – air freight of Dimerco, and witnessed by Jeffrey Shih, CEO of Dimerco, in Shenzhen, China, on February 23, 2024. [Source: Dimerco]
"This achievement, along with the ISO 14064-1:2018 certification received at the end of 2022, highlights Dimerco's ongoing commitment to carbon reduction and sustainability," it said, adding that the company has set ambitious goals to reduce emissions and transition to 100% renewable energy for its offices by 2050.
Dimerco also noted advancements in digital transformation and global networking.
It said that its recent Annual Management Meeting (AMM) showcased the company's digital transformation efforts and its robust global network.
The event featured participants from over 25 countries, including managers, strategic partners, air and ocean carriers, and customers.
"Dimerco utilized innovative digital solutions for event management, including QR code registration and digital promotional materials, reflecting its commitment to environmental protection and efficiency," the freight forwarder added.
