Dunkin', headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Dunkin' Donuts LLC, with emissions data potentially cascading from its parent organisation, Inspire Brands, Inc. However, no specific reduction targets or climate commitments have been disclosed. Dunkin' has not outlined any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or other significant climate pledges. The lack of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that Dunkin' may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Dunkin' will likely need to establish clear emissions reduction goals and reporting practices to align with broader climate commitments.
