JW Filshill has managed to achieve carbon emissions reduction of 50% five years early, with the 2030 target aided by its relocation to its brand-new headquarters, as well as investment in electric HGV vehicles, and solar panels.
The new depot has also transitioned to HVO fuel for all diesel-powered operations and later this year has plans to ramp up its commitment to corporate technology within the business to boost efficiency across the business, including AI.

Simon Hannah, Filshill’s chief executive officer, has recently qualified as an AI trainer, and is keen to work with suppliers and customers to leverage AI for mutual benefit across data analysis and business processes as part of the company’s co-prosperity strategic approach.
The company has also committed to investing in a software platform that will assist greatly in tracking Scope 3 emissions.
Meanwhile, Filshill will build on its established mental health and wellbeing agenda by providing training for 150 KeyStore customers to become mental health ambassadors in their communities, joining the company’s 35 existing trained mental health first-aiders to create a supportive environment for colleagues and customers.
