Evri – on the road to net zero

Evri is the UK’s biggest dedicated parcel delivery business, delivering 720million+ parcels a year.

Following a period of growth, we’re focused on becoming an even more sustainable business as we move towards our target of net zero in direct and indirect emissions by 2035.

Building a green fleet and alternative-fuel exploration are crucial to our decarbonization plans.

In the last year we trialed hydrogen and electric HGVs, and increased our electric van fleet to 168.

We made 1.5 million deliveries by e-cargo bike and have invested in this area to achieve zero-emissions in the final mile.

Meanwhile, 53% of our core HGV fleet is powered by Bio-CNG.

Each CNG tractor unit reduces CO2 emissions by up to 84% compared to an equivalent diesel vehicle. At the end of 2022 we completed our third Corporate Sustainability Assessment with S&P Global index.

Our ESG score increased by 18%, moving us into the top 20% percentile globally within the industry.

In 2023-24, our carbon per parcel was down 21% year on year, and in 2024 we won the EcoVadis Silver Medal for our sustainability efforts and responsible business practices, placing us in the top 15% of businesses assessed in the past year.
