Greenomy stepped in to support Van Weelde Shipping Group, an international integrated shipping group based in Rotterdam, by implementing a robust DMA process for their CSRD reporting.
The Rotterdam-based Van Weelde Shipping Group (VWSG) was established in 1964. The VWSG is an integrated shipping company – dedicated to handysize dry bulk shipping – involved in ship-owning, ship-broking, commercial management and ship management, including crewing and technical management. The VWSG operates primarily under the brand names Orient Shipping Rotterdam and Van Weelde Shipping Group.

The key challenge for Van Weelde Shipping Group was the limited size of their core team, which lacked a formal governance structure to manage sustainability initiatives across the organisation effectively. Without a clearly defined ownership model for sustainability, driving company-wide efforts proved challenging. While their existing ESG report marked an initial step, it fell short of the standards required for compliance with upcoming EU regulations, highlighting the need for a comprehensive overhaul of their sustainability reporting approach.
“My team was nervous about the burden of ESG reporting, but thanks to the Advisory’s assistance, the Double Materiality Assessment went really smoothly. We will definitely spread the word about Greenomy in the industry.”

Greenomy stepped in to support Van Weelde Shipping Group by implementing a robust DMA process for their CSRD reporting. The first step was identifying key internal topic owners across departments. By leveraging their domain-specific expertise, these topic owners were successfully onboarded into the DMA process. This collaborative approach not only ensured that the insights from different parts of the organisation were incorporated, but it also helped save considerable time, allowing the team to work efficiently and focus on key material topics.
As a result of Greenomy’s work with Van Weelde Shipping Group, leveraging Greenomy’s CSRD advisory expertise and reporting solution, the company has made notable progress in aligning with sustainability regulations. Through Greenomy’s DMA process, Van Weelde successfully identified and empowered internal stakeholders across departments, allowing them to contribute efficiently based on their domain expertise, while our organised and streamlined approach significantly reduced the time. With the help of Greenomy’s CSRD reporting solution, Van Weelde is now well-equipped to bridge the outcomes of its DMA with the specific reporting requirements of the CSRD. This collaboration has positioned Van Weelde to perform a gap analysis, initiate efficient data collection, and move confidently towards full CSRD compliance.
