Adherence to the Environmental Quality
East Coast places paramount importance on regulatory compliance, particularly concerning the conveyance and handling of cargo which can be hazardous to people and planet. As such, we strictly adhere to the stringent guidelines set forth by the Environmental Quality Act, 1974 and Environmental Quality (Scheduled Wastes) Regulations 2005, and our operations and facilities are fully compliant to all licence conditions, ensuring the highest standards of environmental responsibility.

Our approach to ESG is holistic and forward-thinking. We continuously seek opportunities to innovate, incorporating eco-friendly practices into our logistics solutions. From optimizing transportation routes to reduce emissions to employing state-of-the-art EV technologies that minimize environmental impact, every decision is made with sustainability in mind.
Environmental Stewardship
As environmental stewards, we recognize our responsibility to preserve natural resources. Through collaborative efforts with industry partners and stakeholders, we actively engage in initiatives aimed at reducing waste, conserving energy, and promoting sustainability throughout the supply chain.
