FreshDirect's reported carbon emissions
FreshDirect, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Fresh Direct, LLC, and does not inherit emissions data from a parent organisation. Despite the lack of specific emissions data, FreshDirect has not outlined any formal reduction targets or climate commitments, such as those associated with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry-standard frameworks. This absence of defined climate initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive sustainability strategy. In the broader context of the grocery delivery industry, many companies are increasingly focusing on reducing their carbon footprints and committing to sustainability goals. FreshDirect's future climate commitments will be crucial in aligning with industry trends and addressing the growing consumer demand for environmentally responsible practices.
