PPA is distinguished for its performance in the three pillars of ESG, for the environment, society and corporate governance .

The company has taken the appropriate measures and the necessary decisions for the protection of the environment, the reduction of the effects of climate change and the energy transition.
It also implements an integrated program of actions and initiatives whose main objective is to support and enhance society, while it is itself an inclusive company that respects and takes care of all its human resources and at the same time operates in terms of transparency, seeking the proper and correct exercise of administration.
The managing director of PPA SA, Su Xudong, expressed his absolute satisfaction that the company’s decisions and course of action for the sustainable development of the port of Piraeus have been recognized for another year and are therefore in the right direction. As he pointed out, the promotion of PPA S.A. for the third consecutive year among the most sustainable companies in the country proves that for the company the protection and care of the environment, the support of society and good governance are not occasional, but are a main pursuit on the basis of which the strategy and the program of the development and continuous upgrading of the port are now formed.
The inclusion of a company in the list of the most sustainable companies in the country by the QualityNet Foundation is the most important distinction in Greece in the field of sustainable transition.
