CO2 Tailored Supply Chain

Numidia follows the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard GHG Protocol to identify its carbon footprint, with a focus on carbon dioxide or carbon dioxide equivalents (CO₂-eq).

We have assessed our scope 1, scope 2 and various scope 3 emissions. This means that we have identified CO₂-eq emissions not only from company-owned office buildings, business travel and commuting, but also from the transportation of products (by ship or truck) and third-party warehousing (storage and freezing). We offset 100% of our emissions using carbon credits from the VCS or Gold Standard platforms. For all scope 1 and scope 2 emissions, our goal is to only use carbon credits from carbon offset programs that have a positive impact on the dairy supply chain.

In addition, we have calculated the upstream scope 3 emissions generated by farmers and producers of all our purchased products. However, unlike downstream scope 3 emissions from sources that fall within our area of responsibility, such as third-party transportation and warehousing, the emissions from farmers and producers are not included in Numidia’s carbon footprint.
