CLIMATE IMPACT We have measured and verified our GHG Emissions with Climate Smart since 2010. In 2024, we shifted partners to Aclymate, as Climate Smart was winding down its operations. As such, our report has a slightly different look and feel, although the analysis is in line with international GHG Protocol guidance. As a promotional products distributor, the majority of our GHG emissions are Scope 3, the result of shipping products to clients (in particular when air shipping is used) and in our own business travel (flying to meetings and events). As of 2024, we had yet to engage our supplier partners on the impact of manufacturing products and are exploring Aclymate’s functionality to better track, measure, and reduce emissions across our supply chain. Our Climate Plan & Net Zero Climate Commitment Our climate plan aligns our business with the worldwide campaign to limit the global average temperature to 1.5 C above pre-industrial levels based on the Paris Agreement and the IPCC Report. We remain committed to halve emissions by 2030 from our baseline (2010) and achieve Net Zero by 2040.
