Staci, Europe’s leading multichannel logistics expert, has donated £25,000 to Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone, a charity dedicated to improving the lives and opportunities of young people in the local area.

Staci is an international multichannel logistics expert with over 70 fulfilment centres in 8 countries, delivering over 15 billion items each year across the cosmetics, FMCG, technology and retail sectors.

Having operated UK offices in Blackburn since 1993, Staci has also been named as one of the top 4% of companies globally for their CSR performance across areas such as environment, ethics and labour standards, which includes their commitment to charitable causes across the UK.

The Youth Zone charity in Lancashire exists to create a positive future for young people, promoting cohesion, skills & aspirations, and health & well-being. They support children and young people aged 5 to 19, and up to 25 through the Youth Hub, which specialises in upskilling young people.

Rt Hon Jack Straw, Chairman of Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone, said:

‘As Chairman of Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone, we are very proud to welcome Staci to the network. The Youth Zone Patron network connects like-minded business leaders together to invest in the next generation. The Patron network has ensured that over the last ten years, the Youth Zone has supported over 18,000 young people, had 387,625 visits through their doors, raised just under £20 million and had a staggering 107,543 volunteering hours to support our mission. ’

Wayne Chapman, UK Managing Director of Staci, said:

“The whole of Team Staci is extremely proud to support this incredible cause, as the work done by Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone to improve the lives and opportunities of young people in the area is truly remarkable.”

“We’ve experienced incredible growth over the last few years, culminating with our best year on record in 2022. The result of this means we can support worthy causes even more with donations and patronages such as this, and my sincere thanks go to every member of Team Staci for helping make this possible.”

“Over 35 years Staci has held a strong reputation for ethics, CSR and doing the right thing for the right reasons – we know how much our clients value this, and we will continually improve this too.”

Congratulations and thanks to our partner GLS France for this first full-scale test of electric transport, which was a resounding success: after e-commerce, we are well on the way to providing our customers with more sustainable transport solutions.

As part of the electrification of its fleet, GLS France carried out a week of parcel collection for Staci with a Volvo Trucks France e-truck.
A first in the Paris region! 👍

As an international Group 🌍 present in 8 countries, Staci must respect the rules of the countries where it operates, its communities and its environment. Appropriate ethical behaviour is a fundamental prerequisite for a healthy and efficient daily business environment.

➡️ We have developed our Code of Conduct to clearly state and respect our commitments as a company, an employer and a good corporate citizen on a daily basis. It is an essential tool to guide our choices in order to put our values and commitments into practice. ⬅️

Intended for all our employees, this guide is intended to help describe our position on :
🔹 The protection and use of the company’s assets
🔹 The fight against corruption, conflicts of interest, anti-competitive practices

🎯 Today, only companies with a strong ethical culture will be sustainable, which is why we want 100% of our employees to be trained in this approach by 2025.
