Partnering with Suppliers

Emissions from business activities outside of McCormick’s direct operations account for over 95% of our carbon footprint. Our near-term scope 3 emissions reduction goal, validated by SBTi, requires a 42% reduction in absolute GHG emissions by 2030.

SCOPE 3: INDIRECT EMISSIONS

Supplier Leadership on Climate Transition

McCormick has joined forces with other brands, including Mars and PepsiCo, to support Guidehouse in establishing the Supplier Leadership on Climate Transition collaborative (S-LoCT), which officially launched in March 2021. The program is designed to mobilize collective climate action by providing suppliers with resources, tools, and knowledge to support their own climate journeys. Through S-LoCT, McCormick suppliers receive free training and mentorship on how to develop Science-Based targets and implement greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction strategies while being recognized for their achievements against these milestones. In turn, supplier progress will accelerate the ability of McCormick and the other participating brands to deliver against their own science-based targets to reduce emissions in their supply chains.

Grown for Good

We also recognize the impact that growing our raw materials has on the environment and believe they should be produced in accordance with the highest environmental, social, and governance standards. Our Grown for Good framework promotes the implementation of regenerative agricultural practices, which are a conservation and rehabilitation approach to farming systems. We work with our in-country partners on programs focused on topsoil regeneration, increasing above and below ground soil health while maximizing water efficiency, enhancing the ecosystem and carbon sequestering.

Sustainable Packaging

To underscore our commitment to reducing our packaging carbon footprint, we've signed the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment. Led by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, along with other companies that represent 20 percent of all plastic packaging produced globally, the commitment highlights our plastic packaging goal. The commitment will help eliminate plastic pollution at the source in support of a circular economy.
