Logista, one of Europe's largest logistics operators, has been included for another year in the Leadership category of CDP, which recognises global leaders in the fight against climate change. In particular, Logista is the only European distributor to be listed in this category for eight consecutive years, reaffirming its commitment to the environment and sustainability.
Logista has received an A-, which is in the highest band. In band B are the average companies in Europe, while in band C are the average companies in the sector.

The CDP, an international non-profit organisation that provides the world’s largest and most comprehensive open global environmental disclosure system, seeks to guide businesses and governments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to protect water resources and forests. Moreover, it collects and evaluates data related to environmental impacts, risks and opportunities, for an independent assessment of the methodology used to calculate the scores.
Iñigo Meirás, CEO of Logista, assessed this certification: "This recognition once again demonstrates Logista's commitment to sustainability, which is one of the fundamental pillars of the company's corporate strategy”.
This recognition is in addition to other certificates obtained by Logista in recent years. In this regard, CDP also recognised Logista's work as a driver of sustainable change throughout its value chain by including it in the Supplier Engagement Leader category in 2022, as one of the companies most committed to its suppliers in the fight against climate change. Furthermore, Logista’s firm commitment to sustainability was recognised in October 2024 by Sustainalytics, one of the world’s foremost evaluators of Corporate Social Responsibility and Corporate Governance.
