Introduction *

1.1 Reporting year

*

2024

1.1.1 Reporting period

*

from 1.2024 to 12.2024

1.4 Number of employees in the reporting year

*
93

1.4.1 Full-time equivalent (FTE) or headcounts

*
Full-time equivalent

1.5 Let us know if your company is a parent company or subsidiary

*
Parent company

Commitment and Targets *

2.1 Net zero target year

*
2030

2.1.1 Base year

*
2019

2.2 Near-term target

*

86% of absolute total emission reduction from my base year by 2030

90 of absolute scope 1 emission reduction from my base year by 2030

95 of absolute scope 2 emission reduction from my base year by 2030

2.3 Provide any additional comments or context on your net zero and near term targets.

*
JBS has reduced our Co2e by approx 80% since base year 2019. We think we are probably going to achieve about 90% reduction from 2019 base level by 2030 (ie net zero)

Own Emissions *

3.1 To reduce emissions in line with my commitment, my company has a plan and is taking action

*
Yes

Energy consumption

3.2 Total energy consumption

*
518284 kwh

3.3 Renewable energy

*
382129 kwh

Scope 1 emissions

3.4 Scope 1 emissions

*
98 metric tons CO2e

Scope 2 emissions

3.5 Location based scope 2 emissions

*
34 metric tons CO2e

3.7 Describe your plans and actions taken to reduce scope 1 & 2 emissions.

*
Re Scope 1 We are aiming to reduce to 70 tCo2e by end 2025, down from 214 tCO2e in 2019, by switching to Hybrids and HVO fuel. re Scope 2: We are aiming to reduce to 12 tCo2e by 2025, down from 562 tCO2e in 2019, by increasing Solar PV use

3.8 Describe the calculation methodology and comment on the data accuracy, including any tools/methods used to calculate.

*
We have a record of all fuel invoices (from Fuelcards) for eg scope 1 motor fuel for all vehicles-and so can see litrage and then use CO2e multiplier to calculate total Co2e. we have used same format excel sheet since 2019 and so can cross check and sense check easily. Our auditor checks as well. Similarly for energy - we have a limited number of suppliers and have their invoices and their KWh. We total the KWH and apply a CO2e multiplier depending on whether renewable electricity or natural gas as energy source

Value Chain Emissions (optional) *

Scope 3 emissions

4.1 Have you measured any of your scope 3 emissions?

*
Yes

4.1.1 Total scope 3 emissions

*
617 metric tons CO2e

Supply chain related - upstream emissions

4.1.2 Purchased goods and services

*
30.14 metric tons CO2e

4.1.3 Capital goods

*
14.53 metric tons CO2e

4.1.5 Transportation and distribution (upstream)

*
279 metric tons CO2e

4.1.6 Waste in operations

*
9.3 metric tons CO2e

4.1.7 Business travel

*
8.05 metric tons CO2e

4.1.8 Employee commuting

*
72.7 metric tons CO2e

Customer related - downstream emissions

4.1.10 Transportation and distribution (downstream)

*
204 metric tons CO2e

4.1.17 Do you have a plan and are taking action to reduce emissions from your value chain?

*

Yes

This is hard to acheive: We have switched to suppliers who use sea freight over air where timelines allow. We require all key suppliers to submit annual emissions data, aligned to GHG Protocol Scope 3 standards. We assess all supplier factories for energy efficiency, renewable energy use, and waste reduction. We give preference to partners who demonstrate year-on-year carbon reductions. We are also working to consolidate shipments, reduce packaging, and transition to lower-carbon materials across our product lines.

4.2 Have you asked any of your suppliers to set a net zero target (either voluntarily or as a requirement)?

*
Yes

4.2.1 What percentage of your suppliers have you asked?

*
60 of spend

4.3 Have you communicated your commitment and actions to any of your customers?

*
Yes

4.4 Describe the calculation methodology and comment on the data accuracy and any tools used to calculate your scope 3 emissions.

*
For each of the 6 categories within Scope 3 we can see and measure the units related to JSB: eg Business travel is either plane/train at X distance for Y staff on Z occasions. This distance has a CO2e multiplier (ideally given by the supplier, but failing that we use Chat GPT for the multiplier). Similarly we have supplier details as to the water or the waste we have consumed during the period. We apply a relevant CO2e multiplier against the total litrage or weight according to type (thus Recyclable waste a has low CO2e multiplier than mixed use waste that goes to eg waste2energy incineration vs that which goes to landfill. )

Climate Solutions (optional) *

5.1 Do you classify any of your existing goods and/or services as a climate solution?

*
No

Management, Strategy and Climate Risk (optional) *

6.1 What governance processes do you have in place for your climate strategy? Choose as many as are applicable.

*

Person is responsible for climate strategy at board level

6.1.1 Please describe their position and responsibility.

*
I am the JBS Chair and I am responsible for collating and submitting all data

6.1.2 Is this person (or another at executive and board level) also responsible for climate risk?

*
Yes

6.2 Have you started to identify and assess your companies climate risks and opportunities?

*
Yes - we have identified climate risks

6.2.1 Where are the climate risks you've identified?

*
Value Chain

6.2.2 How are you managing these climate risks? Choose as many as are applicable.

*

We\'ve not started managing climate risks yet,We\'ve Identified plans for adaptation to mitigate these risks,We\'ve Integrated these adaptation plans into business practices

6.2.3 Provide any additional comments or context on your climate risks:

*
I dont believe that we can permanently out manoeuvre such climate risks - so we are more minded to be ready to adapt as each situation arises - as they do seem to every couple of years. ie Adapting in the moment, rather then seeking a path that will not have climate risks.

6.3 Have you integrated climate and/or nature into your company mission statement or shareholder agreements? If yes, describe how.

*

No

-

6.4 Have you taken actions this year outside of your emissions to accelerate climate progress?

*

No

-

Results, Challenges and Outlook *

7.1 Provide any additional comments or context on your annual results and progress from previous years.

*
We are improving usually steadily. There are occasional set backs (eg when we bought a large amount of solar array - big cap ex and thus CO2e rise in short term). Each reduction is less certain going forward, as we have benefitted from all the easy wins at the start.

7.2 Do you face any key challenges in reducing emissions?

*

Reducing scope 1 emissions,Reducing emissions from business travel,Complexities in managing supply chain emissions,Insufficient policies or government incentives,Limited influence over suppliers

7.3 Has there been any third party validation of the data submitted in this report?

*

Yes

Our 3rd party, independent, external financial auditors check over it each year and we voluntarily submit our progress in the SECR part of our public accounts (even though we are below the threshold requirement).
