Hermes's reported carbon emissions

Hermès, headquartered in France, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data or reduction targets. As of now, there are no documented figures regarding their Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, nor any established science-based targets for emissions reduction. This absence of data suggests that Hermès may be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or reporting practices. In the luxury goods sector, companies are increasingly recognising the importance of sustainability and transparency, and it is anticipated that Hermès will align with industry standards in the future.
