Abstract
The aim of the study is to determine the extent to which the transport and logistics companies fulfilled sustainable development goals. The research sample includes 2021 top 10 transport and logistics companies. The research was conducted through in-depth study of sustainable development reports, content analysis, systematization and grouping of information on tools used to achieve sustainable development goals by transport and logistics companies. The dependence of the number of fulfilled sustainable development goals on the amount of revenue, net income and the number of employees was established through trend analysis of logarithmic dependence. The research results demonstrated that transport and logistics companies fulfil much more sustainable development goals than expected. Transport and logistics companies are actively fulfilling quality education, gender equality, and clean energy in addition to the emission reduction targets and mitigating the effects of climate change. The companies have developed policies to significantly expand the impact on fields other than provision of transport and logistics services. Companies are actively developing and implementing alternative energy sources, clean energy, and contribute to the fulfilment of good health and well-being goals. The research results indicate the dependence of the number of fulfilled sustainable development goals on the company size. It is established that the greater the amount of gross revenue, net revenue or number of employees, the more sustainable development goals the company fulfils. The obtained results can be used by transport and logistics companies in further development of policies for the fulfilment of sustainable development goals. The conducted research opens up new areas of further studies, in particular the impact of fulfilling sustainable development goals by transport and logistics companies on their investment attractiveness and market capitalization.
