Sustainability

Our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives and commitments

OIA Global envisions a better world in service to the environment, our employees, customers, and communities

Our company offers a unique value proposition because we can impact sustainability at multiple points in the supply chain. At OIA, we recognize that sustainability begins at the source, is refined in packaging, and continues throughout transportation management

These efforts can be manifested via sustainable paper sourcing, manufacturing ethics, packaging fiber reduction, mode shifts during transport, or the elimination of plastics, among countless other examples. We are already experts in sustainable packaging design, and we regularly provide customers with quality Scope 3 emissions data. Our ESG team works to identify practical solutions that remain aligned with your strategic business objectives. 

Well-to-wheel Carbon Reporting

OIA Global’s carbon reporting is done “well-to-wheel,” meaning the measurements reflect all aspects of the supply chain, including emissions related to fuel production, processing, distribution, and use

OIA adopted EcoTransIT World and the Clean Cargo methodology because they’re accredited by Smart Freight Centre (SFC) and conform to the GLEC Framework, a globally recognized methodology for harmonized calculation and reporting of GHG emissions in multi-modal supply chains. 

Aligning With the United Nations

OIA Global is aligning its long-term sustainability goals with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By establishing clear baselines and metrics, we are creating a consistent, measurable framework for ESG progress across our global operations, organized around three key pillars: Clean Logistics, Empowered People, and Shared Values.

 

Clean Logistics

Reducing the environmental impact of our products and operations.

Clean Logistics focuses on embedding ESG principles into our operations, aligning emissions targets with company-wide goals, and actively engaging in industry collaborations to accelerate progress. We continue to invest in validated emissions data for our customers via OIA Connect, leveraging methodologies like EcoTransIT to ensure accuracy, transparency, and alignment with global standards.

Empowered People

Improving the lives of our people and their communities.

Improving lives by supporting growth, well-being, and opportunity. Empowered People reflects our belief that a resilient supply chain begins with a strong, supported workforce. At OIA, we foster an environment where employees are empowered to grow, contribute, and succeed. We focus on equal opportunity hiring, employee development, and workplace well-being.

Shared Values

Creating sustained customer value and improving supply chain resiliency.

Shared Values are brought to life through strong partnerships, community building, and internal alignment. We are co-creating solutions with key customers and suppliers to advance our ESG goals, while also driving internal campaigns to foster awareness, engagement, and collective ownership of our sustainability commitments.
