Our principles

 

  • We create food for little ones that's not only good for them, but good for the planet too

  • We work with suppliers to make our sourcing more climate and biodiversity friendly

  • To reduce our carbon footprint, aiming for net-zero carbon by 2050

Our key priorities

 

  • SBTi targets set: near term targets to reduce Scope 1 & 2 emissions by 46% by 2030 from a 2019 baseline (these are emissions from our energy use) and to reduce Scope 3 emissions by 28% by 2030 from a 2019 baseline (these are emissions from our supply chain and the use of our products).

 

  • Our long-term targets are to reduce absolute Scopes 1 & 2 emissions by 90% by 2050 from a 2019 baseline. The Hero group also commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% within the same timeframe. The remaining emissions will be neutralised in line with SBTi criteria before reaching net-zero emissions. 

 

  • All suppliers signed up to Ecovadis ESG platform and working with suppliers to improve their ESG scores and reduce emissions. 

 

  • 100% renewable electricity at our head office.
