Aramark has established significant climate commitments. The company aims to achieve net-zero value chain GHG emissions by 2050, which includes an absolute emissions reduction of 90% by the same year. As part of their near-term strategy, Aramark is committed to setting science-based targets. This includes an absolute emissions reduction of 57.1% for Scope 1 and 2 emissions by FY2030, using a FY2019 baseline. Furthermore, Aramark has committed to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 28% by FY2030, also from a FY2019 baseline. They also aim to have 62% of their suppliers, by emissions coverage of purchased goods and services and upstream transportation and distribution, commit to science-based targets by FY2027. Some reports also indicate a commitment to eliminate all operational emissions by 2040 and a goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 for Scope 1 and 2 emissions.
