Ziegler: Innovating for Sustainability and Employee Excellence in the Logistics Industry

At Ziegler, we understand that the world is changing, and we are committed to staying ahead of the curve. That’s why we are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to serve our customers and employees better. One example of this is our pilot project of using drones in our warehouses for inventory management. By automating this process, we can save time and improve accuracy, all while reducing the risk associated with working at heights. We are also building digital systems providing end-to-end supply chain visibility, deploying autonomous vehicles, and investing in secure cloud-based solutions.

We are also dedicated to sustainability. As a company, we are dedicated to having last-mile delivery that is 100% CO2 neutral. This means that we use cargo bikes, electric vans, and soon autonomous vehicles to deliver packages into city centers, all while minimizing our carbon footprint. Additionally, our headquarters in Brussels is almost completely passive, with more than 1100 photovoltaic panels and the use of water from the canal for air conditioning and heating.

 

We believe that a commitment to sustainability is not only the right thing to do but also makes good business sense. Customers and employees alike are increasingly looking for companies that are environmentally responsible, and we are proud to be one of the leaders in our industry for sustainability.

 

We also know that our success depends on attracting and retaining the best talent. That’s why we are focused on enhancing our employer image and promoting our workplace culture that is both dynamic and inclusive. We are launching the Ziegler Academy this year, which will provide opportunities for talent to learn, grow, and also to rotate between different countries to further develop their skills and experiences.

 

We find the transport and logistics industry fascinating. It is one of the fastest-growing sectors and is a direct reflection of the condition of the economy. We want to encourage young people to find fulfillment in this exciting industry and become champions for the industry to their communities.
