Evri is the UK’s biggest dedicated parcel delivery businsess, delivering 700million+ parcels a year.

Following a period of dramatic growth, we’ve doubled down on our focus to become an even more sustainable business.

We’ve invested in fleet and infrastructure, and our ESG roadmap encompasses three key stakeholder groups (internal management, clients and suppliers) as we move towards net zero in direct and indirect emissions by 2035.

We’ve made strong progress in the last 12-18 months.

At the end of 2022 we completed our third Corporate Sustainability Assessment with S&P Global, a leading index that calculates ESG performance.

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 we’ve converted 100% of our purchased electricity to REGO-backed (Renewable Energy Guarantee of Origin) UK renewables in our whole operation.

In 2024 we were awarded the EcoVadis Silver Medal for our sustainability efforts and responsible business practices.

EcoVadis assesses companies’ performance against various factors, including environmental impact, labour practices and supply chain management.

The result places us in the top 15% of businesses assessed in the past year.
