CLIMATE ACTION PARTNERSHIP
We invite our community of suppliers and retailers to become a UNFI Climate Action Partner. We would love for you to join us on this journey.
In 2020, UNFI developed science-based emissions reduction targets consistent with avoiding the worst effects of climate change. With this important Science-Based Target (SBT) milestone, UNFI joined a global movement of companies leading the transition to a low-carbon economy.
In the process of developing the targets, UNFI learned that 90% of its carbon footprint comes from its value chain, specifically the goods and services that are purchased and distributed to retailers across the nation. UNFI is on a journey to reduce its carbon footprint and cannot achieve this goal without its suppliers also succeeding in reducing their global warming emissions.
Climate Action Partners are companies within our supplier and retailer community that have made a meaningful climate commitment through one of the following organizations:
• Climate Collaborative
• Science Based Target initiative (SBTi)
• SME Climate Hub
• We made a commitment, but not through an external organization
We are notified quarterly by these organizations of companies that have made a commitment. We consider all companies in our supplier and retailer community who have made a climate commitment to be a Climate Action Partner. We look forward to featuring these Partners on our website and finding ways to bring visibility to their commitment.
Let us know you have made a commitment through one of the organizations above. Please complete this simple form.
