Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG)

 
As part of our Vision to build a resilient and future-focused sector, CBAFF is committed to strengthening environmental, social and governance (ESG) alignment across our industry. We recognise that responsible and sustainable business practices are essential to maintaining trust, driving innovation, and ensuring the long-term success of New Zealand’s freight forwarding, logistics, and customs broking community.
 
We welcome your input as this important work evolves. If you have feedback, ideas, or would like to be involved, please contact us at ceo(at)cbaff.org.nz.
 
Together, we can build a resilient logistics sector that drives meaningful change for both our industry and the environment.

Our Vision

“We aim to operate as a responsible and resilient organisation that reduces environmental impact, supports our people and communities, and upholds transparent and ethical governance practices aligned with Aotearoa New Zealand values.”
 
   
 
As part of this commitment to ESG, our 2024 and 2025 conferences proudly supported Trees That Count.
 
With one native tree donated for every delegate, CBAFF has contributed 813 trees* over the two years, helping to fund five planting projects across New Zealand.
 
* 813 trees will help to remove about 180 tonnes of carbon dioxide from our atmosphere over 50 years.
