Agility has been honoured for its corporate social responsibility and environmental efforts at two recent award ceremonies.
The logistics company was firstly presented with a ‘Special Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Award’ at the Arabian Business Achievement Awards 2010 in Kuwait.
For the second award, Agility was selected as the ‘Best Green Service Provider’ at the Asian Freight and Supply Chain Awards (AFSCA) in Shanghai, which was voted by shippers.
“It feels great for Agility to be recognised for living our corporate culture and its commitment to good corporate citizenship. With our global presence, especially in emerging markets, we recognise that poverty, disasters, and global climate change affect us all and cannot be ignored,” said Tarek Sultan, CEO of Agility.
“We believe that good corporate citizenship is a long-term investment in the future of our business, our society and our planet. Our commitment to CSR is fuelled by the drive and passion of our employees that approach each initiative with personal ownership and a can do attitude,” he added.
Since 2006, Agility has invested in over 300 community projects in 52 countries, reaching over 500,000 people on the ground, according to a press release.
