Musgrave's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Musgrave Group, headquartered in Ireland, reported no specific carbon emissions data, indicating a lack of disclosed emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, and 3. However, the company has made significant climate commitments, including a long-term target to achieve net-zero emissions across all scopes by 2050, as part of its Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitment established in 2023. Historically, Musgrave's emissions data from previous years shows a trend of increasing revenue alongside emissions, with total emissions reported in 2005 at approximately 93,346,000 kg CO2e, which included 35,513,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 (mobile combustion) and 49,966,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 (purchased electricity). The company has not disclosed specific emissions data for subsequent years, which limits the ability to assess progress against its climate commitments. Musgrave's commitment to net-zero emissions reflects its recognition of the urgent need for climate action within the food and staples retailing sector. The company is a member of the BA1.5 initiative, further demonstrating its dedication to aligning with global climate goals. As Musgrave continues to develop its sustainability strategy, stakeholders will be looking for transparent reporting on emissions and progress towards its ambitious targets.
