Cargill to make ocean transportation safer, efficient, sustainable
Cargill reports some improvements across a number of performance measures, notably within its fleet composition and vessel efficiency.
Cargill, Inc., Minneapolis, published its first corporate responsibility report specifically for its ocean transportation business. The report, which is written in line with the Global Reporting Initiative, provides an update on progress for 2017. The company outlines its plans and activities to lead dry bulk shipping into a new era by making shipping safer and more efficient and sustainable.
Together with its stakeholders, Cargill completed a comprehensive materiality assessment for its operations in mid-2017. Using this assessment tool as a basis, the business set actions and targets to improve operations in climate change and health; safety and well-being; ocean health and biodiversity; and inclusion and diversity.
