Ann Summers reports zero emissions data across all scopes despite operating ~80 UK stores, a distribution centre, and a complex global supply chain. The company has published SBTi-aligned targets but no baseline figures or progress evidence. Critical gaps span energy, water, biodiversity, and waste—masked by thin sustainability branding with no substantive disclosure.
