Bidfood's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from The Bidvest Group Limited

Bidfood, headquartered in the Netherlands, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of The Bidvest Group Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. As of now, Bidfood has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives related to carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. While there are no specific emissions figures or reduction commitments to report, Bidfood's alignment with The Bidvest Group Limited indicates a potential for future climate action, as the parent company may have established frameworks or targets that could cascade down to its subsidiaries. In summary, Bidfood is currently without specific emissions data or reduction targets, but its relationship with The Bidvest Group Limited may provide a pathway for future climate commitments and initiatives.
