The absence of documented climate pledges or science-based targets indicates a potential area for improvement in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while Sun Art Retail has made strides in tracking emissions, further commitments and actionable targets would enhance their climate responsibility and align with industry standards for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
