Making progressPending Review

Fever-Tree has credible SBTi-validated net-zero targets and switched away from offsets to insetting, but operational emissions rose 12% year-on-year to 2023. Supply chain Scope 3 reporting is incomplete, water strategy remains unquantified, and nature work is philanthropic rather than verified net-positive. The company's tiny absolute footprint limits material climate impact regardless of trajectory direction.
