Shoprite Checkers (Pty) Ltd.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Shoprite Holdings Ltd

Shoprite Checkers (Pty) Ltd., 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 Shoprite Holdings Ltd., which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As part of its climate strategy, Shoprite Checkers inherits emissions data and reduction initiatives from its parent company, Shoprite Holdings Ltd. However, there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges available for Shoprite Checkers at this time. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the process of developing its climate action framework. In the broader context, the retail industry is increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction, with many companies setting Science-Based Targets (SBTi) to align with global climate goals. Shoprite Checkers, through its relationship with Shoprite Holdings Ltd., may be expected to adopt similar practices in the future. Overall, while specific emissions figures and reduction commitments are not currently available for Shoprite Checkers, the company's affiliation with a larger corporate entity may provide a pathway for future climate action and reporting.
