Running one of the world’s largest logistics networks requires managing fuel use, infrastructure constraints, customer expectations, and long‑term operational risk at scale. In this episode of Sustainability Leaders, Michael Torrance, Chief Sustainability Officer at BMO, speaks with Andreas Mündel, Senior Vice President of Strategy and Operations at DHL Group, about how sustainability is shaping the company’s strategy, operations, and competitive positioning.

The conversation explores why sustainable aviation fuel is critical to DHL’s future, how the company has built one of the world’s largest electric delivery fleets, and why infrastructure availability—such as power and charging capacity—has become a key operational constraint.

The episode also includes how customer demand for lower‑impact logistics services is driving new product offerings, how sustainability is embedded into governance and incentives, and why DHL views these efforts as essential to long‑term competitiveness rather than a compliance exercise.
