Sustainability

For over 130 years, Scoular has taken deep pride in operating with integrity and creating value through responsible and innovative supply chain solutions. We remain committed to improving the world and enriching the lives of our employees by building upon our history and continuing to deliver creative solutions globally.

We’re building on the past five years’ success and committing to three focus areas where we can make the biggest impact on the supply chain: our partners, our impact, and our people.

OUR SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY

Our new sustainability focus areas allow us to center on key themes, including upstream and downstream supply chain collaborations, our direct effect on the environment, and sustaining our most valuable resource—our employees. The progress made on our initial sustainability strategy led us to define new commitments and goals in support of a more sustainable supply chain. Get in touch with us to learn more.

Protect Resources

We’re dedicated to delivering high-quality products that are cultivated with care and responsibility. By supporting regenerative agriculture programming and working closely with trusted suppliers, we provide the supply chain with products that benefit producers, suppliers, and the environment.

Our commitments and goals:
  • Deforestation: Adopt a deforestation policy.
  • Regenerative agriculture: Target 200,000 of regeneratively sourced acres annually by 2030.
  • Human rights: Adopt a human rights commitment.
  • Supplier engagement: Launch supplier sustainability program.

Reduce Impact

We remain good stewards of the earth because reducing our impact matters to the communities where we live and work. Our collaborations with like-minded partners create a more sustainable supply chain to benefit people, the planet and future generations.

Our commitments and goals:
  • Scope 1 & 2: Reduce absolute scope 1 & 2 footprint by 10%.
  • Scope 3: Develop scope 3 inventory. Continue to explore collaborations for supply chain emissions reductions.
  • Water: Complete water site risk assessment.
