This marks a significant increase in emissions compared to 2023, where total emissions were about 10,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 316,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 10,081,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 58,000 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, Kawan Food has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with 2022 figures indicating total emissions of approximately 10,000,000 kg CO2e, including 544,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 10,910,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. In 2021, the company reported about 6,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 5,487,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, but did not disclose Scope 3 emissions for that year. Despite these figures, Kawan Food has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor have they reported any initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of defined reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments in line with industry standards. Kawan Food's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that the reported figures are solely from their operations. The company continues to operate within the food industry, which is increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact, highlighting the importance of establishing robust climate action plans.
