For instance, in 2021, their total emissions were approximately 2,143,000,000 kg CO2e globally, indicating a significant focus on managing and reporting emissions across all scopes. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented, which suggests that while they are tracking emissions, they may not have formalised reduction initiatives or commitments in place. Overall, Nichirei's emissions data reflects a substantial operational footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which often represent the largest share of total emissions for companies in the food and logistics sectors.
