We strive to be economically successful over the long term in order to secure the continued existence of our company and at the same time enable us to create the necessary scope to act in an environmentally and socially sustainable manner. Because only economic independence gives us the leeway to make major investments in climate protection measures, convert temporary employment contracts into permanent ones or provide long-term support for social projects.

We are therefore embracing digital transformation as it enables us to develop future-proof logistics solutions for our customers, respond flexibly to future changes and further strengthen our market position. We design digitalization strategies to optimize our processes and focus on new technologies such as artificial intelligence, collaborative robots and driverless transport systems. This form of innovation opens up opportunities for us to increase efficiency as well as create new climate-friendly logistics solutions for a more sustainable tomorrow.

Furthermore, only if we are economically robust can we guarantee secure jobs, good pay and room for our employees to grow. We want to create sustainable value for them as well as for our other stakeholders. For us, this is more than merely part of the responsibility we bear as a company; it is also our key driving force.

Our compliance system provides the framework for this and increasingly involves the entire supply chain beyond our immediate corporate boundaries. Our actions and all decisions are based on strict and unconditional compliance with the law as well as our self-defined ethical principles.
