In 2022, the company reported approximately 20,309,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 47,922,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, indicating a trend towards lower emissions. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges disclosed by the company, which suggests a need for further commitment to formal climate initiatives. Overall, Quantum Foods is actively monitoring its emissions, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 2, but further transparency regarding its long-term climate commitments and reduction strategies would enhance its sustainability profile.
