Ocado has credible SBTi-validated net-zero targets and supply-chain emissions tracking, but operational emissions from its delivery fleet remain high and growing with expansion. Renewable energy commitments lack transparency on actual percentage coverage. Fundamental weakness: the company operates a linear retail model with limited real circularity outcomes beyond reuse pilots.
