Designer's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Designer Brands Inc., headquartered in Ireland (IE), reported total carbon emissions of approximately 169,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 159,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 499,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 globally. Within Ireland specifically, the company disclosed Scope 3 emissions related to business travel, amounting to about 218,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Designer Brands has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to decrease their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. All emissions data is sourced directly from Designer Brands Inc. with no cascaded data from a parent or related organization. The company operates within an industry context that increasingly prioritises sustainability, yet it currently lacks defined pathways for emissions reduction.
