K-citymarket Oy's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Kesko Oyj

K-citymarket Oy, headquartered in Finland (FI), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Kesko Oyj, which means that any emissions data or climate commitments may be inherited from its parent organisation. As of now, K-citymarket Oy has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. K-citymarket Oy's climate commitments and performance metrics are likely influenced by the broader sustainability initiatives of Kesko Oyj, which may include various industry-standard climate pledges and frameworks. However, without specific data or commitments from K-citymarket Oy itself, it is challenging to provide a detailed overview of its carbon emissions or reduction strategies. In summary, while K-citymarket Oy is part of a larger corporate family with potential climate initiatives, it currently lacks specific emissions data and defined reduction targets.
