Strategy
Cargotec's vision is to become the global leader in sustainable cargo flow. We influence the flow of the world’s supply chains, making them more efficient while providing solutions for lowered CO2 emissions.
In seizing profitable growth through sustainability, we seek to transform the logistics industry while capturing the business opportunities that come with it. Our solutions and actions help our customers drive the transition to a circular, 1.5°C world.
WHERE TO WIN
Grow in core and adjacent businesses
We will continue to seek profitable growth within our core and adjacent businesses. Emphasis is on organic growth, but we also actively look for opportunities through M&A.
Solve customer challenges in climate change and sustainability
Our customers are facing increasing pressure from customers and regulation to provide a sustainable offering. We want to provide intelligent solutions that help our customers reduce their burden on the climate and solve sustainability-related challenges.
Invest in industry innovation and transformation
Continuous investments in innovation are a prerequisite for long-term success. New technologies in terms of electrification, AI, robotics and automation are transforming Cargotec’s industries. Investments in industry innovation and transformation enable us to create an eco portfolio offering for our customers.
Expand lifecycle services
Service business offers growth opportunities due to the low capture rate in many areas of traditional services. We seek growth from extended service offerings and life cycle services. Promoting services and extending the life cycle of products are also key elements of the circular economy.
WAYS TO WIN
People and leadership
Good leadership and inclusion drive innovation and growth, as people feel safe to reveal their knowledge and talents. We continue to improve our organisational climate index.
Customer collaboration
Working closely together with our customers is the key to becoming the global leader in sustainable cargo flow. Close customer relationships and smooth collaboration are important differentiators that make us stand out from our competition.
Mission Climate
To focus even more on sustainability, we launched a programme called Mission Climate in 2021. Mission Climate drives emission reductions across Cargotec through sustainable innovations and supporting related capability building.
Innovations and new business models
We want to solve industry-wide problems through intelligent solutions. We aim to develop new innovations and business models through our Digital Solutions Hub, Emerging Business Accelerator and R&D investments.
Life cycle solutions
We aim to expand our service offering from traditional maintenance and spare parts sales to providing intelligent solutions throughout the equipment life cycle. Digital offerings to address customer challenges are still a big opportunity. Through our innovative offering, we are able to serve our customers better and help them reach their circularity targets.
Operational excellence
We want to continually improve our performance and productivity to ensure a good profit position to invest in new innovations. It is important to empower the full organisation in creating lasting improvement and operational excellence.
