Significant gapsPending Review

Côte Brasserie discloses no emissions data across Scope 1, 2, or 3 despite operating ~70 gas-heated restaurants with significant supply chain emissions from meat and dairy. The company has set informal, unverified targets with no science alignment, SBTi pathway, or public accountability. Core gaps: absent operational monitoring, no renewable energy strategy, and undisclosed carbon offsets.
