In addition to gas procurement close to the sources of supply, efficient market access, secure trading logistics and integrated portfolio and risk management, we are always conscious of providing an environment friendly future for the energy industry. We are continuously developing our range of products and services in a market- and customer-oriented manner, and support our customers in their endeavours to sustainably reduce CO2 emissions.

As the lead company of VNG AG in the trading segment, we build and nurture long-term business relationships based on mutual trust with customers, suppliers, trading partners and our affiliated companies. Together with its trading subsidiaries, VNG Handel & Vertrieb supplies customers in Germany, Italy, Austria, Poland and the Czech Republic reliably and flexibly with gas and services for an environment-friendly future.

Our vision

We are the preferred German partner in the energy commodity and service business.

Our mission

We are best in class in the energy industry and recognised as a future-proof service specialist in the management of commodity positions and in the handling of energy industry processes. As a reliable partner, we offer unique expertise and high quality in our products and services. We strive for success in harmony

with sustainability goals for a reliable energy supply and a sustainable energy industry. With our committed team, we take advantage of the opportunities in the energy market and create added value for our partners. For us forward thinking, sustainable action and social commitment go without saying.

Where the journey is taking us
 

Efficient IT systems are essential for gas trading and our business as a whole. Because that is the case, we are continuously developing these systems and our digital service offerings. One example of this is the VNG business portal: We have created a modern, central platform for managing all aspects of your contract.

Our digital roadmap

As part of the VNG 2030+ corporate strategy, we are doing more than just what’s necessary: We also want to harness the full potential of the digital transformation internally at VNG Handel & Vertrieb. The decisive factors for success are our employees and their skills. Since 2018, we have therefore been challenging and encouraging our employees to come with us

on a long-term digital journey with various milestones. For example, we have set up a digital workspace for them, which makes working with IT applications easier. With this and numerous other initiatives, we are creating the conditions for agile working and the digital business ideas of tomorrow and beyond.
