Friesens's reported carbon emissions

Friesens, headquartered in CA, currently does not have available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor do they have specified reduction targets or climate pledges. This absence of data suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or reporting practices. In the context of the industry, it is increasingly important for companies to establish clear emissions reduction strategies and set measurable targets to align with global climate goals. As such, Friesens may benefit from developing a comprehensive sustainability plan that includes tracking and reporting their carbon footprint, as well as committing to industry-standard reduction initiatives.
