2022 Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Report Summary

EMEA ADVANCING NET ZERO IN THE LOGISTICS AND DISTRIBUTION SECTOR A large e-commerce client engaged our team to help reduce the carbon footprint of their warehouses across Europe to align with their climate goals. Energy reduction measures had to be identified and prioritized based on the estimated energy savings and feasibility of implementation to help such a large, international company make a significant impact in the short term. A range of measures were considered from upgrading building fabric to suggesting behavioral and operational changes or introduction of renewable technologies. Our sustainability consultants in the region collected and collated energy data for all sites to benchmark and prioritize sites that required the most investment to reduce energy consumption. From there, our teams produced improvement plans to clearly communicate the most effective energy conservation measures for each site and how the site's energy consumption compared to industry benchmarks and other warehouses. We also helped the client form the timeline and next steps required for implementing the proposed measures to set them up for meaningful advancement toward their net zero carbon goals.

GROWING COMCROP’S ROOFTOPS The Cushman & Wakefield Project & Development Services (PDS) Singapore team developed a commercially scalable urban rooftop greenhouse and farming complex for ComCrop.

The PDS team assisted the client and partnering sponsors with completing the first stage of construction in an ambitious two-month timeframe. We also ensured that certain milestones for farm production were achieved to qualify for local agriculture grant funding, helping to ensure the viability of this project for years to come.
