Despite these figures, 7-Eleven has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests a need for further action in addressing their carbon footprint. The company operates within a challenging industry context, where retail and convenience store sectors are increasingly scrutinised for their environmental impact.
