Unieuro's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Unieuro reported total carbon emissions of approximately 8,000,000 kg CO2e across various scopes. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 1,689,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions (location-based) totalled approximately 17,104,000 kg CO2e. The company also disclosed significant Scope 3 emissions, which included approximately 6,090,820,000 kg CO2e from the use of sold products, alongside other categories such as purchased goods and services, and transportation. In 2022, Unieuro's emissions were approximately 1,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3, with Scope 1 at about 349,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 (location-based) at approximately 15,502,000 kg CO2e. The trend shows a notable increase in Scope 1 emissions from 303,000 kg CO2e in 2021 to 1,689,000 kg CO2e in 2023, indicating a need for enhanced climate strategies. Despite these figures, Unieuro has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit their ability to effectively address their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company is currently in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As the retail sector increasingly prioritises sustainability, Unieuro's future commitments will be crucial in aligning with industry standards and expectations.
