Coupang, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data or specific reduction targets. Without emissions figures, it is challenging to assess their carbon footprint or the scope of their emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). However, the company is expected to align with industry standards for climate commitments, which typically include initiatives aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing sustainability practices. As the e-commerce sector increasingly focuses on climate action, Coupang may implement strategies to address its environmental impact in the future.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Coupang is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
