AirSmart is designed to help shippers lower their environmental footprint by prioritizing energy-efficient aircraft and optimized flight paths, guided by advanced analytics and external flight performance data. The goal is to enable smarter logistics choices without compromising service quality.
The launch is part of GEODIS’ broader commitment to sustainability, including a target to cut absolute air freight emissions by 25% by 2030. With AirSmart, emission reductions are made visible and accessible via GEODIS’ digital platforms, allowing customers to track progress and make more climate-conscious shipping decisions.
Henri Le Gouis, EVP of Global Freight Forwarding at GEODIS, called the innovation a milestone:
“GEODIS AirSmart is a smart, sustainable leap forward for the freight industry. It balances high performance with a lower carbon impact—something our customers increasingly demand.”
GEODIS also revealed plans to extend the low-emissions strategy to ocean freight, with a similar solution in development for maritime logistics.
With regulatory pressure and customer expectations around sustainability rising, AirSmart represents a timely and strategic move by GEODIS to lead in carbon-efficient freight forwarding.
