Givaudan secures CDP A for supplier engagement on climate

Givaudan has been recognized once again in the CDP Supplier Engagement Assessment Leaderboard, securing another A rating for engaging its supply chain on climate action.

CDP’s annual Supplier Engagement Assessment (SEA) – formerly known as the Supplier Engagement Rating (SER) – evaluates corporate supply chain engagement on climate issues. The Supplier Engagement Assessment Leaderboard celebrates companies who achieve the highest ratings and recognizes their crucial role in the transition towards the net-zero sustainable economy.

Gilles Andrier, CEO of Givaudan says: “Our supply chain accounts for over 90% of our total emissions (scope 3). While some may view this as a daunting challenge, we see it as a significant opportunity for collective action. Collaborating to reduce supply chain emissions is essential for our climate ambitions, and we are proud of the recognition we’ve received for our progress. “As we celebrate this achievement, we must remember that climate action is urgent. Achieving our long-term goals depends on businesses and their supply chains working together to create meaningful impact not just in the distant future, but today and throughout our journey.”

Givaudan continues to deliver concrete progress in its climate journey. For example, in January 2025, Givaudan announced new milestones on its journey towards climate positivity with the validation of its net-zero targets by the Science Based Targets initiative.
