Pepkor Holdings Proprietary Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Pepkor Holdings Limited

Pepkor Holdings Proprietary Limited, headquartered in South Africa (ZA), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Pepkor Holdings Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As of now, Pepkor Holdings has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives related to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of specific emissions data and reduction targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Given the lack of available data, it is unclear how Pepkor Holdings is addressing its carbon footprint or aligning with industry standards for emissions reduction. The company may benefit from adopting comprehensive climate commitments and setting measurable targets to enhance its sustainability profile in the retail sector.
