FoodTankers är ett företag i en bransch som av många anses vara motsatsen till hållbarhet. Därför har vi antagit utmaningen och vill visa att vi faktiskt kan arbeta för en hållbar utveckling både miljömässigt, socialt och ekonomiskt.
Vi vill helt enkelt vara det goda företaget som respekteras av våra anställda, kunder, leverantörer samt samhället och dess medborgare. 2015 blev året då FoodTankers tog ett helhetsgrepp kring hållbarhet och började arbeta på ett strukturerat sätt enligt miljöperspektivet samt en socialt och ekonomiskt hållbar utveckling.
Vi granskades också av DNV NL på uppdrag av en av våra större kunders Code of Conduct med ett positivt resultat. Vi arbetar sedan dess aktivt med uppföljning av våra underleverantörer, både svenska och utländska.
Mer om vårt CSR arbete kan ni läsa om i vår hållbarhetsrapport
FoodTankers har även en uppförandekod som samtliga medarbetare och underleverantörer måste skriva på för att få arbeta för oss.
FoodTankers är ansluten till Sveriges Åkeriföretags initiativ FAIR TRANSPORT.
