Sargento Foods Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Sargento Foods Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for recent years. As a result, specific figures regarding their emissions in kg CO2e, including Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions, are not provided. In the absence of detailed emissions data, it is important to note that Sargento Foods has not outlined any specific reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or similar climate pledges. This lack of publicly disclosed initiatives may reflect a broader industry context where many food manufacturers are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon reduction strategies.
