We’re proud of the progress we’ve made in reducing our environmental impact while increasing our positive contribution to the communities we serve. To give just two examples, since establishing our emissions baseline in 2019, we’ve achieved a 17% reduction in Scope One emissions and a 22% reduction in Scope Two emissions.
As part of an ongoing commitment we have rolled out compulsory fuel-efficient driving courses that have brought real performance benefits on the road while advanced hydrotreated vegetable oil fuel trials are showing impressive returns. Underpinning this is our investment in management software to optimise routes and loads, and in ongoing fleet modernisation. All these investments result in real environmental benefits for our clients and our planet.
Our commitment extends beyond carbon reduction to the communities we both work in and serve. People matter. Our investment in apprenticeships helps young people build rewarding careers in logistics, while our staff training programmes ensure that our team continues to develop the skills and expertise that keep us at the forefront of our industry.
Our community giving programmes support local charities and initiatives that make a tangible difference in the areas we serve, because we believe that successful businesses have a responsibility to contribute to the communities that support them.
All this is backed up by our board level commitment to transparency in both evaluation and implementation of our programmes.
The future of logistics must be sustainable. Our comprehensive environmental strategy focuses on practical, measurable actions that reduce our carbon footprint while maintaining the service excellence our clients expect.
Through strategic fleet modernisation, innovative trials with hydrogenated vegetable oil and the implementation of smart distribution software that optimises routes for maximum efficiency and minimum environmental impact, we’re proving that responsible logistics doesn’t mean compromising on performance. Our operations are designed for efficiency and lower carbon impact, and we provide transparent reporting that helps our clients meet their own sustainability targets with confidence.
Behind every successful delivery and every satisfied client you’ll find our people – the true driving force of Keedwell Konnect. We don’t just employ drivers, warehouse staff and account managers—we invest in logistics professionals who understand that their expertise, dedication and personal commitment to service excellence is what sets us apart in a crowded market.
Our continuous training and development programmes ensure that every member of our team maintains industry-leading standards in safety, service and governance.
But beyond the technical skills and certifications, we focus on nurturing the values that define us: trust, service, and unwavering commitment to doing the right thing. Logistics is a people business, and the quality of our people determines the quality of our service.
Being a family-owned business isn’t just about our ownership structure – it fundamentally shapes how we think about relationships, responsibility and the long-term impact of our actions. We believe in building partnerships that last generations. We invest in our communities because we understand that healthy, thriving local economies create the foundation for sustainable business success.
Our apprenticeship programs don’t just fill skills gaps – they provide young people with lasting careers in an industry that offers stability, growth and the satisfaction of keeping Britain moving. Our charity initiatives aren’t token gestures – they’re meaningful partnerships with organisations that share our commitment to making a positive difference in the communities we serve.
