Lufthansa Cargo and global logistics provider CEVA Logistics have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to expand their collaboration in the area of sustainability, with a focus on the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).
The agreement aims to enable measurable CO2 reductions in airfreight operations through joint efforts, mutual learning, and transparency.
The MoU sets the foundation for long-term cooperation, with verifiable emission reductions already expected in 2025.
“Lufthansa Cargo is not only a long-standing business partner – we also share the same ambition: making airfreight more sustainable," said Loïc Gay, global air & ocean products leader at CEVA Logistics.
"With our joint focus on SAF, we’re laying the foundation to achieve our climate goals while driving innovative supply chain solutions – powered by Lufthansa Cargo’s efficient Boeing 777F freighter fleet."
Anand Kulkarni, head of global markets at Lufthansa Cargo, added: “We’ve built a long-standing, trust-based partnership with CEVA Logistics. Taking action together on SAF now sends a strong signal: customers and carriers can drive real progress when working hand in hand.
"Sustainability is not an add-on for us – it’s an essential part of how we fulfil our purpose: Enabling Global Business."
Lufthansa Cargo already has a number of SAF partnerships with companies in the airfreight and logistics industry. Last year, it struck new partnerships with ocean giant Maersk, Chinese logistics company Best Services International Freight and Swiss WorldCargo, amongst others.
