The August profit reporting season was fruitful for Coles Group, which recorded a surge in revenue to post an annual profit to $1.1 billion, a 4.8% rise from the previous year. But the supermarket and retail giant also made another statement in August that was much less reported – its Scope 3 emissions supplier engagement target. It was a significant move by Coles, who stated they intend to set sustainability targets with at least 75 per cent of its suppliers over the next four years.
