Moving Green

This is how we work at STEF Netherlands towards more sustainable food logistics.

For the planet

As a player in the food chain, we are aware of our responsibility for the planet. We know that we must take further action to reduce our ecological footprint. With our Moving Green program, we make this concrete. This approach focuses on four clear pillars: sustainable mobility, a responsible cold chain, collaboration with our suppliers, and engaging our teams in sustainability.

Our actions

Solar panels

At our Bodegraven site, 1,700 solar panels contribute to a more sustainable energy supply. Together, they generate approximately 580,000 kWh annually, covering about 30% of the site’s total energy consumption. This represents a significant step toward a fully low-carbon energy supply.

Alternative fuels

Our Dutch fleet increasingly operates on LNG and other alternative fuels. These vehicles produce lower CO₂ emissions and directly contribute to making our transport more sustainable. In addition, we continuously explore new solutions, such as testing hydrogen applications within our internal transport.

Moving forward sustainably together

30% less CO₂ emissions by 2030

STEF is working on a significant CO₂ reduction. With alternative fuels, solar panels, and wind energy, we are gradually lowering our emissions. Our goal is a 30% reduction in CO₂ by 2030, without compromising on quality or reliability.

Intermodal = sustainable transport

Where possible, we combine road and rail transport for long distances. By planning smarter and consolidating routes, we save both kilometers and CO₂. An essential part of our Moving Green approach.

Transparency and reporting

By providing insights into CO₂ emissions per shipment, we help organizations make more sustainable choices. Through reports and data, we show exactly how much impact your transport has and where we can improve together.

Every trip should contribute to lower emissions. Through consolidation and planning, we make our logistics smarter and more sustainable.
