This is the 4th "Best Green Seaport" trophy awarded to ports of the Seine axis. This new prize underlines recognition of HAROPA’s commitment to the environment. With this award, Asian importers/exporters, logisticians, freight forwarders and shipping companies acknowledge the quality of environmental initiatives driven by HAROPA, whose environmental commitment is based around the development of mass modes and the encouragement of effective initiatives in the fight against global warming.

HAROPA's environmental approach translates into:
> Commitments to reduce the carbon footprint related to its activities and protect the port ecosystem
> Helping its customers decarbonise
> Research, work and environmental certification procedures

"This trophy illustrates recognition of our environmental policy. It proves that we can both be the premier French port complex and ensure the respectful development of our regions and ecosystems", says Laurent Foloppe, HAROPA’s Commercial and Marketing Director. "Congratulations also to our winning customers and partners in the Best Logistics Service Provider and Best Shipping Line categories."
