Jumia Group's reported carbon emissions

Jumia Group, headquartered in Nigeria (NG), currently does not have available carbon emissions data for the most recent year, nor does it report specific reduction targets or initiatives. The absence of emissions data suggests that Jumia Group may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. While there are no specific figures to report, the company is part of a broader industry context where many organisations are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction. Jumia Group's climate strategy may evolve as it aligns with industry standards and practices, potentially adopting frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in the future. As of now, Jumia Group does not inherit emissions data from any parent company, and there are no cascading targets or initiatives reported from related organisations. The company may benefit from exploring partnerships and frameworks that can guide its climate commitments moving forward.
