European grocery retailers are under increasing pressure to reduce their environmental impact, with a particular focus on achieving net-zero emissions. A significant portion of these emissions – often exceeding 95% – falls under Scope 3, encompassing the emissions generated throughout their supply chain, primarily from food and beverage production. Accurately measuring and reducing Scope 3 emissions is crucial for meeting sustainability targets and demonstrating genuine progress to stakeholders. However, two key factors are creating a complex landscape for retailers: the EU's Omnibus initiative and the reliance on supplier-provided Science Based Targets (SBTi).
