Harvester scores 48/100 (Making progress) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified May 2026.
That places Harvester joint 188th of 809 companies scored, and 4th of 49 in Food Service / Restaurants.
Harvester's parent, Mitchells & Butlers, has SBTi-validated net-zero targets and renewable electricity across 1,726 sites, but absolute emissions progress is modest at 16% towards a 2040 goal. Critical gaps: no water strategy despite significant consumption, weak biodiversity disclosure, and Scope 3 targets below 1.5°C alignment. Waste and energy programmes are solid but do not offset weak supply chain and nature accountability.
