SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY


The green colour of our company flag represents not only our heritage but also our moral obligation to adopt green practices. In 2018, we made a commitment to offset our travel carbon emissions and ceased to own company cars. Instead, we implemented a company bicycle scheme as an incentive to our team to cycle to work. Nowadays, the entire Toepfer team travel to the office by bike or, if unavoidable, by public transport.

 

Since 2021, we have tracked the carbon footprint of all company activities and follow a full carbon accounting model. Our CO2 emission offset is then used to support projects that commit to the conservation, protection and restoration of the environment. Our office energy consumption is based on 100% renewables and our purchasing decisions also take into account the environmental impact.

 

The company – as well as the management and many employees – donate to, and actively support, organisations that have a positive impact on social life and the environment. Besides that, we put on various company events that underline our social and environmental commitment. Toepfer Transport actively supports competitive (Olympic) sailing by sponsoring the development of emerging talents. Furthermore, our managing shareholder Clemens Toepfer proudly keeps alive the philanthropist history of the Toepfer Family as Chairman of the Advisory Board of the Carl Toepfer Foundation.

ABOUT US | Our History

OUR HISTORY


Toepfer Transport is one of the largest sale & purchase and newbuilding shipbroking firms in Hamburg.

 

The company was founded in 1974 by the late Mr Heinrich A. Toepfer after he has left his father’s grain and shipping business, Alfred C. Toepfer. The company began as a pure dry cargo broker and then branched out into container chartering in the 80s and in the 90s into the S&P and newbuilding activities. Over 100 newbuildings have been placed since then. In December 1999, Mr Clemens Toepfer joined the company and became managing director in 2001.

 

Since 2007, we have established a permanent presence in Shanghai to cover the Asian newbuilding markets.

 

In January 2014, Mr Hannes Hollaender became a partner, and our dedicated research department was established.
