Since becoming a member in 2022, BuyCo has been committed to aligning its strategies and operations with the fundamental principles of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption set by the UN Global Compact. Our ultimate goal is to amplify our global impact by upholding these principles and working towards the Sustainable Development Goals within the transport and logistics sector.
By conducting business responsibly and integrating the Ten Principles into our daily operations, BuyCo is not only meeting the expectations of the Global Compact but also striving to contribute to broader societal objectives, including the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
In 2024, BuyCo reaffirms its dedication to the Ten Principles and showcases its ongoing efforts to embed these principles into its business practices. Through our annual Communication on Progress, we demonstrate our commitment to driving positive change and supporting the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
Although BuyCo is a small software company, we are making a significant impact by empowering our clients to make eco-conscious decisions when selecting vessels for container shipments based on their expected CO2 emissions. Additionally, 30% of our revenue goes towards developing low-carbon products and services.
Carl Lauron, the Founder and CEO of BuyCo, says “I would like to emphasize our reliance on the UN Global Compact framework to drive responsible business practices and fulfill our societal obligations. By taking proactive steps, we are not only transforming our own operations but also facilitating change within the global shipping industry”.
Today, BuyCo is assisting some of the world's largest shippers in reducing their carbon footprint. To learn more about how we are supporting shippers to reduce their scope 3 emissions and achieve their sustainability goals, visit https://buyco.co/container-shipping-solutions/reduce-emissions/
