To accelerate its sustainability agenda, UAE-based retail conglomerate Apparel Group is introducing new greenhouse gas accounting initiatives.
This carbon accounting exercise will enable the company to put in place the proper reduction measures and design its Net-Zero journey following its sustainability report.
CEO of Apparel Group, Neeraj Teckchandani, said: “We are committed to ensuring that our operations align with our values and contribute to a better future for all.
“Our focus on sustainability will enable us to reduce our carbon footprint and design a Net-Zero journey. We are excited about this new chapter in our company’s history and look forward to sharing our progress.”
Greenhouse gas accounting is a way companies can measure how many overall emissions they are producing and emitting into the atmosphere.
Since 2010, Apparel Group has increased their focus on the environment, acknowledging the urgency to help alleviate the global climate situation.
Recently, the Group signed a pledge with the UAE government for the race to Net Zero by 2050. Complementary to this, the company has joined the UACA alliance to leverage peer knowledge and best practices. The company aims to conduct a full carbon accounting of its operations, which will establish a baseline and submit targets to SBTi.
Last month, Apparel Group set out to plant 100 trees in Spain using NFTs in keeping with its sustainability targets.
