Scaling Responsible Logistics: Embedding Sustainability, Efficiency, and National Value Across SAL’s Growing Platform

Dear stakeholders,

At SAL, sustainability is embedded in the way we operate, invest, and report. Throughout 2025, we continued integrating ESG considerations across our business and value chain, consistent with our role as the Kingdom’s national logistics champion. Sustainability remains central to strengthening our operating model, enhancing resilience, and supporting long-term value creation.

During the year, we advanced our understanding of the environmental, social, and governance implications of our activities. As stakeholder expectations evolve, we recognize the importance of assessing our impacts, managing associated risks proactively, and identifying opportunities that contribute to sustainable, responsible growth. This commitment forms a core part of how we create enduring value for our customers, partners, and the communities we serve.

In 2025, we initiated the development of SAL’s Net-Zero Plan. The first step focused on establishing the governance foundations, developing baseline insights, and defining the priority decarbonization levers across our operating footprint. This work will inform a sequenced roadmap that supports a disciplined and pragmatic transition in coming years.

Our environmental approach emphasizes operational efficiency and measured transition actions. We are prioritizing energy management systems across key sites and advancing the transition to electric and lower-emission ground support equipment. These initiatives are aligned with our broader growth strategy and are designed to reinforce cost discipline, reduce exposure to energy and carbon trends, and ensure the long-term performance of our assets.

Our social commitments remain central to our role as a national operator. We continue to invest in safety, skills, and professional development through structured learning programs, while fostering an inclusive and performance-driven culture. These efforts strengthen operational reliability, support talent development, and contribute to broader national workforce participation.

Our governance foundation continues to be strong. We maintain robust controls, ethics, and compliance, and are further aligning our management systems with recognized standards and reporting practices. This ensures transparent, consistent disclosure and supports the confidence of our stakeholders.

Our focus remains clear and pragmatic: protect people and communities, operate reliably, use resources efficiently, and support the Kingdom’s trade and connectivity agenda under Vision 2030. This is the lens through which we manage our responsibilities and deliver long-term value for our stakeholders.
