Decathlon's Climate Commitments and Emissions Overview

In 2024, Decathlon reported total global GHG emissions of approximately 8.14 billion kg CO2e. This figure comprises Scope 1 emissions of roughly 27.75 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 37.67 million kg CO2e, and a substantial Scope 3 contribution of nearly 8.10 billion kg CO2e. The largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions were purchased goods and services (approximately 5.26 billion kg CO2e) and downstream transportation and distribution (around 1.22 billion kg CO2e).

The company has set ambitious climate targets. By 2030, Decathlon aims to reduce its absolute GHG emissions by 42% compared to 2021 levels, covering all scopes. Furthermore, they have committed to a net-zero goal by 2050, targeting a 90% reduction in absolute GHG emissions by that year, also against a 2021 baseline, while neutralising any residual emissions.

Decathlon has also established a near-term target to reduce its absolute GHG emissions by 20% by 2026, compared to 2021 emissions. This target applies to all scopes. Additionally, Decathlon has commitments aligned with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) standards, including a target to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 90% by 2026 from a 2016 base year. An intensity-based target aims for a 53% reduction in Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions per value added over the same timeframe.
