Hapag-Lloyd and Scan Global Logistics sign major biofuel deal

German container shipping company Hapag-Lloyd and Danish transport and logistics solution provider Scan Global Logistics (SGL) enter into a multimillion-dollar ocean biofuel agreement.

SGL and Hapag-Lloyd have embarked on an initiative to integrate biofuels into their shipping operations. By utilizing biofuel derived from renewable sources, both partners aim to support customers in substantially reducing carbon emissions and contribute to the global effort to combat climate change.

“This partnership not only allows us to reduce emissions but also reinforces our commitment to delivering sustainable logistics solutions that benefit our customers and society as a whole,” stated Mads Drejer, Global COO & CCO at Scan Global Logistics.

Through this collaborative effort, SGL and Hapag-Lloyd aim to establish a long-term partnership for the further upscaling of sustainable transport solutions.

“We are delighted to have SGL as our valued partner supporting our Ship Green initiative,” said Tom De Wilde, Senior Director of Global Sales at Hapag-Lloyd. “Together, we are demonstrating our shared dedication to decarbonization and driving positive change in the shipping industry – in line with Hapag-Lloyd’s commitment to operate a net-zero fleet by 2045.”
