Valrhona Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

In 2013, Valrhona Inc. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 62,053,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 2,482,120 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 1,241,060 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 58,329,820 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, indicating a substantial impact from their supply chain and product lifecycle. As of the latest data, Valrhona has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests that while they are aware of their emissions, they may not yet have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with industry standards or frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Valrhona's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of their carbon output. This underscores the need for comprehensive strategies that encompass not only direct operations but also the broader supply chain and product usage.
