Global retailer SHEIN has partnered with Lufthansa Cargo to explore more sustainable air cargo solutions. The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding on August 19th, confirming plans to expand the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and other low-carbon initiatives.
According to the agreement, SHEIN and Lufthansa Cargo aim to finalize specific actions within the next six months. SHEIN’s deliveries will focus on using SAF and come with a verifiable “Proof of Sustainability” certificate documenting emissions reductions compared to traditional aviation fuel.
“This partnership enables us to pilot and expand the use of SAF while continuing to explore fleet efficiency and other emission reduction methods,” said Ethan Shen, SHEIN’s General Manager of Global Logistics.
Ashwin Bhat, Lufthansa Cargo CEO, added that the agreement underscores the airline’s commitment to responsible logistics and building a greener supply chain.
The MOU also paves the way for future collaboration on data traceability, reporting, and knowledge sharing. Both companies view this move as the beginning of a long-term collaboration aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of global air transport.
