Jumia Group's reported carbon emissions
As of the latest available data, Jumia Group's carbon emissions have shown significant figures over the years. In 2016, the company reported total emissions of approximately 1,609,174,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 315,603,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 755,109,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 538,462,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. Looking back, emissions have fluctuated, with the highest recorded total emissions of about 1,581,888,000 kg CO2e in 2015. The breakdown for that year included 645,428,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 651,233,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 293,227,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. Despite these figures, Jumia Group has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company acknowledges its emissions, it may not have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with industry standards or frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Jumia Group's emissions data highlights the scale of its carbon footprint, but the lack of clear climate commitments indicates an area for potential improvement in their sustainability strategy.
