Imperial Logistics's reported carbon emissions

For the South African operations in 2021, Imperial Logistics recorded Scope 1 emissions of approximately 274,847,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions of about 29,907,000 kg CO2e. However, no emissions data was available for the year 2020 in the South African region. Despite these figures, Imperial Logistics has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of defined climate pledges suggests a need for further commitment to sustainability and emissions reduction within the logistics sector.
