DHL and Lindt & Sprüngli have collaborated to reduce ocean transport emissions, aligning with science-based net-zero goals by 2050. Lindt & Sprüngli, the Swiss chocolate manufacturer, has been working with DHL Global Forwarding since 2008 to transport its products worldwide. Now, they're utilizing DHL's GoGreen Plus service, which employs biofuels made from waste and residues to reduce emissions by an average of 80%.
This partnership has already yielded significant results, with Lindt & Sprüngli reducing its carbon footprint by approximately 514.86 metric tonnes of CO2e emissions in just three months. By the end of 2024, they expect to reduce emissions by around 4,800 tonnes. DHL Global Forwarding's GoGreen Plus service provides an end-to-end solution for Lindt & Sprüngli's supply chain, ensuring emission reduction and seamless transportation. The service focuses on Full Container Load shipments, using 40' reefer containers to preserve the quality of Lindt & Sprüngli's chocolate products.
