Harrods disclosed emissions data for the first time in 2024 but reports only a 2.4% reduction against an ambitious 90% by-2030 target—trajectory is dangerously slow. Scope 3 supply chain emissions remain unmapped and unquantified despite managing 3,000+ brands. A major institutional failure: over 400 sexual abuse allegations against former chairman Al Fayed, with ongoing civil claims and a compensation scheme launched in 2025.
