In 2024, the company's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 370,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at about 230,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 business travel emissions stood at approximately 4,008,000 kg CO2e.

For the reporting year 2025 (referring to data that includes 2025 reporting), Scope 1 emissions were approximately 412,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions were around 249,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions from business travel accounted for approximately 4,135,000 kg CO2e.

Previous years' data shows:

• 2023: Scope 1 emissions were approximately 263,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were about 288,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 business travel emissions were approximately 4,076,000 kg CO2e.
• 2022: Scope 1 emissions totalled approximately 235,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were about 250,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 business travel emissions amounted to approximately 526,000 kg CO2e.
• 2021: Scope 1 emissions were approximately 142,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were about 250,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 business travel emissions were approximately 345,000 kg CO2e.
• 2020: Scope 1 emissions were approximately 345,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were about 310,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 business travel emissions were approximately 7,769,000 kg CO2e.

Zespri discloses all three scopes of emissions, with a noted absence of data for Scope 3 category "purchased goods and services". The company also provides production emission factors, such as approximately 440 kg CO2e per kg of fruit shipped and about 1,520 kg CO2e per Tray Equivalent (TE) for the reporting year 2025.

While specific absolute reduction targets are not detailed in the provided information, Zespri's commitment is evident through its comprehensive emissions reporting and its focus on providing data-driven insights into its climate impact within the sugar industry context. Their sustainability reports, such as the GHG Assurance Report 2025, serve as key documents for their climate initiatives.
