As of 2022, specific emissions data was not disclosed, indicating a potential gap in reporting or a shift in their emissions tracking approach. Notably, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges currently available for Norsk Kylling AS, suggesting that while they are aware of their emissions profile, they may not have formalised commitments to reduce their carbon footprint. It is important to note that the emissions data for 2020 is cascaded from Norsk Kylling AS as a current subsidiary, and no data from parent or related organisations has been specified. The company operates within the poultry industry, which is increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact, highlighting the importance of transparent emissions reporting and commitment to sustainability initiatives.
