Awarded an "A" Rating in CDP 2025 Supplier Engagement Assessment

Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL; President & CEO: Jotaro Tamura, Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo) has been awarded an "A" score in the CDP 2025 Supplier Engagement Assessment (SEA) conducted by CDP, an international environmental non-profit organization*1, and has been selected as a "Supplier Engagement Leader."

The Supplier Engagement Assessment (SEA) evaluates how effectively companies are working with their suppliers to address climate change. In addition to a company's standard CDP Climate Change score, CDP assigns a separate SEA score based on supplier-related initiatives and performance.

In April 2026, MOL Group updated the "MOL Group Environmental Vision," which outlines its fundamental approach to environmental issues, in conjunction with the formulation of Phase 2 of its management plan, "BLUE ACTION 2035." Under this vision, the Group has identified key environmental actions, including the "adoption of alternative fuels," "improvement of fuel efficiency," and "expansion of low-carbon/decarbonized businesses." MOL recognizes that collaboration with suppliers is essential to advancing these initiatives.

Guided by MOL Group Corporate Mission-"From the blue oceans, we sustain people's lives and ensure a prosperous future"-MOL Group will continue to accelerate these efforts. By enhancing not only economic value but also social value, MOL aims to deliver new value to all stakeholders and to grow into a resilient and flexible global corporate group.
