This figure includes about 1,240,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and about 1,338,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Currently, Sunco Foods Inc. has not established any specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it report on Scope 3 emissions, which cover all other indirect emissions in the value chain. The absence of reduction initiatives indicates a potential area for future commitment to climate action. As of now, there is no data cascaded from a parent or related organization, and all emissions data is directly reported by Sunco Foods Inc. This positions the company in a critical phase of evaluating and potentially enhancing its climate commitments in line with industry standards.
