Spartannash's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, SpartanNash reported total carbon emissions of approximately 393,217,000 kg CO2e, which includes 228,900,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and 164,317,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marked a significant increase in emissions compared to 2021, when the company recorded about 70,281,000 kg CO2e, all attributed to Scope 1 emissions. Despite the increase in emissions, SpartanNash has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating their carbon footprint. The absence of defined climate pledges or science-based targets suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As a major player in the food distribution industry, SpartanNash's commitment to addressing climate change will be crucial in aligning with global sustainability goals and responding to increasing regulatory and consumer pressures for transparency and accountability in carbon emissions.
