HOYER Group awarded the EcoVadis Gold Medal and ISO 50001 certification

The HOYER Group has been awarded the EcoVadis Gold Medal for its comprehensive commitment in the areas of sustainability and responsible corporate governance.

At the same time, the global logistics provider received ISO 50001 certification for its energy management system. 

The EcoVadis Gold Medal confirms the top performance of HOYER in the areas of environment, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.

EcoVadis conducts its assessments as a neutral body with strict criteria, using a standardised assessment model based on international sustainability standards.

 EcoVadis medals are awarded according to a company’s percentage ranking. With its gold medal, the HOYER Group ranks among the best five percent of all companies evaluated worldwide. 

Björn Schniederkötter, chief executive officer of the HOYER Group, said: “This double award sends a strong signal – both internally and externally. It shows that we don’t just talk about sustainability, we actively live it.

“The EcoVadis Gold Medal and ISO 50001 certification are important milestones, and demonstrate our commitment to efficient, resource-conserving behavior. They are the results of consistent teamwork and our strategic aspiration, as a global family business, to implementing sustainability in a measurable and effective way. They confirm that we successfully combine ecological responsibility and economic efficiency, both for ourselves and for our customers.”
