Itsu publishes zero emissions data despite operating 80+ restaurants and a grocery manufacturing business. No climate targets, no renewable energy strategy, no supply chain assessment. The company discloses only packaging initiatives while growing revenue 9% year-on-year—expansion without accountability. Weak governance and transparency across all material environmental issues.
Same formula for every company. No curve. No private weighting.
