Gist Limited

Gist is a temperature-controlled logistics specialist, offering its customers primary (from supplier to depot) and retail distribution logistics services (from depot to store). As part of the Marks & Spencer group, Gist is fully responsible for M&S Food logistics, holding itself to account for the full breadth of services and partnerships within the retailer. 

Gist’s 5,500 colleagues operate from the UK and the Republic of Ireland, and as well as providing the majority of M&S Food logistics services, operate a number of logistics services for third parties as well as providing expertise in freight management services across the globe.

Gist’s objective is to establish a performance-focused environment for its people, that is fair and inclusive, where everyone can develop, and connect meaningfully to their manager, the Gist vision, and M&S. We are fiercely protective of everyone’s health, safety, and wellbeing, and align firmly to M&S’s sustainability commitments in Plan A.

Our latest Sustainability Report outlines the work undertaken with our colleagues, customers, and stakeholders to reduce our carbon emissions and the steps we are taking to align with Marks and Spencer’s Plan A and associated roadmap to net zero. In an industry where the technology for decarbonising is still in its early stages, we at Gist recognise that there is still much to do, and we are committed to playing our part.
 
For example, this year, Gist has lowered fuel wasted due to engine idling by 50% by reducing auto engine cut-off times. We’ve also reduced the volume of waste generated by nearly 15% year-on-year.
 
“Sustainability has been a part of how we work at Gist for many years,” says Dan Platten SHEQ & Sustainability Director. “The acquisition by M&S has provided us with more stretching net zero goals.”
