Jumbo's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Jumbo reported a significant reduction in its carbon emissions, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 1,064,880 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 2,219,630 kg CO2e. This marks a notable shift from previous years, where Scope 1 emissions were considerably higher, such as 234,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021 and 229,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022. However, Jumbo's Scope 3 emissions remain substantial, with figures around 10,448,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 10,677,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021, indicating a continued challenge in managing upstream emissions. Despite these reductions, Jumbo has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company’s emissions profile highlights a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass the majority of a company's carbon footprint, particularly in the retail sector. Jumbo's ongoing efforts to address its carbon emissions are crucial as it navigates the complexities of sustainability in the food retail industry.
