Bel Brands's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Bel SA

Bel Brands, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of figures in the latest emissions report. The company is a current subsidiary of Bel Brands USA, Inc., which inherits its climate commitments and performance data from its parent company, Bel SA. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Bel Brands, it is important to note that the climate initiatives and targets may be influenced by the overarching strategies of Bel SA. This includes potential commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and other sustainability frameworks, although specific details on these initiatives are not provided. As a subsidiary, Bel Brands may align its climate strategies with those of Bel SA, which could include industry-standard practices for reducing greenhouse gas emissions across various scopes. However, without explicit data or commitments from Bel Brands itself, the specifics of their climate action remain unclear. In summary, while Bel Brands is part of a larger corporate family with potential climate commitments, it currently lacks publicly available emissions data and defined reduction targets.
