CHEP’s purpose is to connect people with life’s essentials every day and helps move more goods to more people, in more places than any other organisation on earth. As pioneers of the sharing economy, CHEP created one of the world’s most sustainable logistics businesses through the share and reuse of its platforms under a model known as ‘pooling’.

CHEP’s commitment to its customers, employees, and community form the foundation of its strategy, contributing positively to local communities by supporting food security and food waste initiatives, education, environmental restoration programs, and by encouraging its people to participate in local community initiatives with paid volunteer leave.
