Sustainability

Our  ambition “Making (y)our logistics sustainable”, means that we intend to support our customers to achieve their sustainable goals also. Therefore we are continuously developing sustainable solutions. The ECO-service for international groupage shipments is a recent example of our sustainable solutions and innovations.

As a winner of the Dutch Lean and Green award Wim Bosman guarantees reducing carbon emissions by 30% in 2012 from levels recorded in 2007. Besides that, we are intensively working on the CO₂ efficiency of our international fleet and also reducing the energy consumption in our buildings.

Next to internal measurements Wim Bosman focuses on optimisations in the entire supply chain, by intense cooperation with our customers, partners and suppliers. We also contribute by means of workshops and presentations, to convince other companies to move into sustainable logistics.

In this perspective Wim Bosman fulfills an important role within the Green Freight Europe programme. The programme, which was originally developed under the working title SmartWay Europe,  aims to be recognized as the leading independent voluntary program for improving environmental performance of road freight transport in Europe.

Doing business whilst taking into account the sustainable developments of the community, is a necessity for an enduring company. Wim Bosman focuses on (traffic)safety and education especially for kids, who are our future. Traffic safety is promoted in the form of blind spot mirror information campaigns. We support charity initiatives, mainly in areas where Wim Bosman has its footprint. For instance, we support the Mother Teresa Foundation in Romania. Team members are stimulated to join voluntary social initiatives, like NL Doet.

Vitality, employability and competences are of great importance for a sustainable Wim Bosman. An enduring company is build by many good people, not a few. Our approach has always been to provide young, intelligent and passionate people with the tools to build their own careers through their own initiatives. By cooperations with educational institutions and government we intend to align educational programs and required competences.
