In 2023, Interfood Americas reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,926,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 357,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily arise from direct operations, and 95,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity and heat. Notably, the majority of their emissions, about 1,473,000 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses indirect emissions from the value chain, including business travel. Comparatively, in 2021, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 1,081,700 kg CO2e, indicating a significant increase in emissions over the two-year period. In 2020, their total emissions were about 1,439,500 kg CO2e. This data highlights a concerning trend in rising emissions, particularly in Scope 3 categories. Currently, Interfood Americas has not established specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit their ability to effectively address their carbon footprint. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, the absence of defined climate commitments could pose challenges for the company in aligning with global climate goals.
