Malmö, Sweden: Boozt, the leading Nordic department store, today announced that the Science Based Targets initiative approved Boozt’s near-term science-based emission reduction targets. This significant milestone sets a clear path for Boozt´s climate action.
“This achievement marks an important step in Boozt's journey and a testament to our commitment to transparency and accountability in our sustainability efforts,” said Hermann Haraldsson, co-founder & CEO of Boozt. “By aligning our targets with the latest climate science, we are taking concrete action to reduce our environmental impact.”
Boozt's approved near-term science-based targets include:
- Boozt Group commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 55% by FY2032 from FY2022 base year.
- Boozt Group also commits to increase active annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 98.2% in FY2022 to 100% by FY2030.
- Boozt Group further commits that 88% of its suppliers by spend covering purchased goods and services, will have science-based targets by FY2028.
Boozt's journey to setting science-based targets began in 2022 with the recognition that climate action is critical to the company's long-term success. The company has since calculated its emissions according to the GHG Protocol and worked on setting science-based targets in 2023. As a third-party retailer tackling Scope 3 emissions from all indirect emissions that occur in the value chain is a challenge; Boozt will focus on providing its brand partners with the support needed to take action.
“Achieving approved science-based targets provides a clear roadmap for our future actions, aligned with Boozt Care-For strategy,” said Gloria Tramontana, Head of Sustainability and ESG for the Boozt Group.
