As of 2025, Grindrod has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover only its total carbon footprint, without separate targets for operational (Scope 1 and 2) or value chain (Scope 3) emissions. This limits the ability to track progress across distinct emissions categories.ab
As of 2025, Grindrod has set a target to reduce its total carbon footprint, specifically those from Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 sources.ab
Grindrod's most ambitious carbon footprint target is to reduce its scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from a baseline of 44,443 Metric Tonnes of CO2 equivalent (mtCO2e) in 2019, by 84% by 2045.ab
Instead of reducing total carbon footprint, Grindrod has increased them, with 2025 levels exceeding those of the 2019 baseline, placing the company well behind its reduction target.ab
