Kroger, headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data or reduction targets. Without available figures, it is challenging to assess their carbon footprint or the scope of their emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). However, the company is expected to engage in various climate commitments typical of the retail industry, focusing on sustainability and reducing environmental impact. As the industry increasingly prioritises climate action, Kroger may be involved in initiatives aimed at improving energy efficiency, reducing waste, and enhancing supply chain sustainability. Further details on their specific commitments or achievements in carbon reduction are not available at this time.
