One of our primary ambitions is to be recognized as a leader on the environment in the car industry. We want to be a resource on automotive and environmental issues and enable customers to make good environmental choices.
For several years MøllerGruppen has, both within the organization and externally, focused on the environment through our product strategies, certification schemes, training and discussions with social players, customers, business partners, and car manufacturers.
Norway is world leader in sales of eco-friendly cars, measured as a proportion of the vehicle fleet. MøllerGruppen can conclude that Volkswagen is the main driver in reducing CO2 emissions in the Norwegian fleet. This makes MøllerGruppen the leading company in Norway for chargeable cars.
It is also our ongoing ambition to reduce MøllerGruppen’s total CO2 emissions in all parts of our business. We also have established energy management in all our buildings. See more about this in our CSR Report.

MøllerGruppen’s companies in Latvia were in 2014 imposed a corporate fine totaling 7.3 million Euro due to alleged illegal collusion. MøllerGruppen strongly disagree with the basis for the fine and claim that the size of the fine is unfair and discriminatory in relation to the alleged irregularities. The case is brought before the Latvian judiciary and the expected judgment of First Instance in Q1 2017.
By focusing on the right attitudes and systematic improvement work, MøllerGruppen’s operations shall help promote human rights, good labour and environmental standards, and zero tolerance for corruption. To strengthen this work and ensure that all our employees share the same basic vision in order to be able to make safe, correct choices, we have developed a Code of Conduct, which clarifies our basic ethical principles and guidelines.
