While we have always been a responsible carrier, the last 12 months have seen a significant gear change in our efforts to become an even more ethical and sustainable business.
“To underline our commitment, ESG forms two of the four core pillars that underpin our new brand: Community and ESG itself. With a dedicated team and a bold new vision in place, Evri is in a strong ESG leadership position as the next chapter for our business begins.”
