Gregory Group is proud to announce that we have been awarded the 2025 Motor Transport Low Carbon Award. This prestigious recognition highlights our exceptional achievements in reducing environmental impact and driving sustainable change within the logistics industry.

Setting the standard for low carbon transport

The Motor Transport Low Carbon Award celebrates organisations that have successfully delivered measurable reductions in carbon emissions, invested in innovative technologies, and demonstrated sector-leading environmental strategies. Gregory Group's success is a testament to our long-term commitment to carbon reduction through clear targets, practical action, and ongoing collaboration with our customers.

Key achievements and initiatives

  • A Clear, Measurable Plan: Our near-term emission reduction targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), and we conduct a comprehensive carbon footprint assessment every year to ensure we stay on course.

  • Fleet Decarbonisation: We have invested in HVO, LNG, CNG, and battery electric technologies, with 18% of our 1,400 fleet now operating on low-carbon fuels.

  • Beyond Low Carbon Fuels: We are also working closely with our customers and partners to optimise operations, from developing technology that optimises routes to collaborating with trailer manufacturers to increase payload.

  • Bringing the Team Onboard: Critical to our sustainability agenda is providing training and tools to help our people realise sustainability improvements. This includes an electric HGV roadshow to familiarise drivers with new ways of working and training to reduce emissions through cruise control, throttle usage, and idling time.

The results

Our hard work has paid off, with the last financial year reporting a 19% reduction in emissions, putting us ahead of our Scope 1 SBTi validated target.

Angela Butler, Managing Director, who collected the award on behalf of Gregory Group, commented:

"Winning the 2025 Motor Transport Low Carbon Award is a testament to the hard work and vision of our people. Our commitment to embrace change that reduces our impact on the planet is becoming a reality, and we are delighted to be recognised with this award. Our journey to support our customers with their decarbonisation ambitions will continue, and in partnership, we are driving positive change. We are delighted to be at the forefront of our sector’s transition to net zero".

Paul Jefferson, Group Legal & Sustainability Director, added:

"We couldn’t have reached this point without the collaboration of our customers and partners, and winning this award is a landmark occasion that firmly signals a shift in our industry. But we are far from done! We recently became the first transport operator to gain approval under the RFAS Fleet Scheme to verify the greenhouse gas emission savings our renewable vehicles achieve for each customer, and these industry firsts will continue until we, and our wider industry, achieve net zero".
