On Friday, 15th November 2024, we were honoured with the Excellence in Sustainability Award at the West Cheshire & North Wales Chamber of Commerce Annual Recognition Awards. This prestigious recognition highlights our unwavering commitment to sustainability in transport and beyond.
Leading the Way in Sustainable Logistics
As a third-generation family business, Farrall’s Group has always valued innovation and responsibility. Over the past few years, we’ve embraced significant changes to reduce our environmental footprint. From trialling all available fuel alternatives and integrating electric units into our fleet to installing a 552kWh solar panel system at our Deeside head office, we are actively transforming how we operate.
Our efforts go beyond adopting new technologies. We’ve prioritised collaborative partnerships, engaging with local authorities, and have continuously sought to inspire the logistics sector with bold ambitions. This award is a testament to our dedication to tackling climate change while maintaining exceptional service for our customers.
The award was sponsored by Pathway to Carbon Zero, who been a valuable part of our decarbonisation planning, assisting with developing our ESG report and providing knowledgeable insights into the plan of each of our future steps.
Sustainability in Transport: A Core Value
At Farrall’s Group, we believe that sustainability in transport is not just a goal—it’s a necessity. With HGVs accounting for 17% of domestic transport sector emissions, we’ve taken proactive steps to lead by example. From optimising routes and reducing fuel consumption to exploring alternative fuels, every initiative contributes to a cleaner, more sustainable future for the industry.
What’s Next?
Winning the Excellence in Sustainability Award reaffirms our commitment to driving forward with purpose. In the coming months, we’ll continue exploring innovative solutions and collaborating with like-minded partners to advance sustainability in transport. From expanding our use of renewable energy to championing community-focused initiatives, the journey is far from over.
We’re incredibly grateful to our team, customers, and partners for their continued support. Together, we’re not just moving goods—we’re moving towards a better future.
