Ethics and #sustainability aren’t just ‘nice-to-haves’ for DIY companies: they drive purchasing decisions 🌍 Many businesses now reject suppliers that fail to meet ethical or environmental standards, knowing customers won’t compromise on values. But a responsible supply chain doesn’t end at sourcing. Delivery must align with the brand promise, too - yet 38% of #SMEs in this industry see delivery and carrier partnerships as a barrier. In fact, 62% want the power to choose their carrier. If a business's supply chain doesn’t match its sustainability commitments, it risks losing trust. At Geopost, we are helping SMEs tighten the loop between sustainability and #delivery - because responsibility doesn’t stop at checkout.

Climate Fresk — 1,400 Minds for Sustainability   We’re proud to share that 1,400 of our colleagues across Geopost including Asendia, Chronopost, Chronofresh, DPD France, DPD Czech Republic, DPD UK, BRT Corriere Espresso, DPD Deutschland, DPD Lietuva, DPD (Belgium) NV/SA, Pickup, CitySprint, and Lenton Group have now taken part in Climate Fresk workshops—a major milestone in our journey toward driving awareness and action around the challenges facing our world 🌎   So, what’s a Climate Fresk?  It’s a dynamic, science-based workshop where participants work together to map out the causes and consequences of climate change. Using a set of cards, teams piece together the complex puzzle of global warming, from greenhouse gas emissions to rising sea levels, creating a clear, visual picture of the climate system. It’s hands-on, collaborative and informative.   Why does it matter?  Climate Fresk isn’t just about facts—it’s about understanding the big picture and sparking action. It empowers our colleagues to see how their choices, both at work and in life, connect to the global challenge of climate change. By fostering dialogue and breaking down silos, it builds a shared sense of responsibility and hope.   What do people get out of it?  Participants walk away with a deeper grasp of climate science, but more than that—they leave inspired. The workshop sparks creativity, fuels problem-solving and ignites a passion for change. Colleagues share ideas, challenge assumptions and leave with practical ways to reduce their impact—whether it’s rethinking logistics, cutting waste or advocating for greener policies.   How does it shape the future?  By equipping 1,400 colleagues with knowledge and motivation, we’re planting seeds for a better world. These workshops are more than team-building—they’re about creating a ripple effect. When our people understand the stakes, they drive innovation, influence decisions, and inspire others, helping Geopost lead the way in sustainable logistics and contributing to a healthier planet for generations to come.   We’re just getting started! Here’s to empowering more colleagues, sparking bold ideas and building a more sustainable future.   La Fresque du Climat #ClimateFresk #Sustainability #Geopost #ClimateAction #ParcelDelivery #Logistics
