The largest contributors to Scope 3 emissions were purchased goods and services (approximately 7.17 billion kg CO2e), followed by the use of sold products (approximately 1.59 billion kg CO2e) and employee commutes (approximately 621 million kg CO2e). Previously, in fiscal year 2024, Sodexo's total global emissions were approximately 10.47 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions around 93.8 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions approximately 10.7 million kg CO2e (market-based).

This target is approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and aligns with the Paris Agreement's goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. * **Renewable Electricity:** Sodexo aims to increase its annual sourcing of renewable electricity to 100% by 2025, up from 20% in 2017. * **Net-Zero Commitment:** Sodexo has initiated a process to formalise a science-based net-zero commitment by 2040 across its value chain.
