Domino’s Pizza gets net zero 2050 target validation in industry first

Domino’s Pizza is expanding the use of electric vehicles to deliver pizzas globally as well as partnering with the dairy industry to reduce one of the largest source of emissions in pizza production: cheese.

The plans have helped Domino’s to become the first quick service restaurant (QSR) chain to have its science- based environmental targets validated, based on the latest scientific guidance on Forest, Land and Agriculture (FLAG), with the company committing to net zero emissions by 2050.

Domino’s Pizza was selected as one of the first 10 companies in the world to have their FLAG targets validated.

The announcement means an independent organisation, the Science Based Targets initiative, has reviewed Domino’s targets and confirmed the pathway to reach them meets internationally recognised scientific standards.

In addition to targeting net zero, Domino’s has also committed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 65 per cent per product sold by 2030 compared to 2020 emissions – including business growth -, and to halt deforestation in its supply chain by 2025.

Domino’s reviewed its emissions, and those in its supply chain, prior to planning a roadmap to reduce its carbon footprint and identified nearly 40 per cent of its emissions came from dairy and other animal based proteins, largely for cheese.

To reach its ambitious goal, Domino’s is working with business partners to identify ways to reduce dairy emissions, without compromising on customers’ taste preferences. The Domino’s Dairy Initiative intends to reduce the environmental impact from dairy, in an ethical and sustainable way.

Marika Stegmeijer, Chief Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) Officer, said Domino’s worked closely with international environmental experts to establish and validate the company’s targets and pathway, reviewing the entire value chain, including corporate operations, franchisees, and supply chain partners.

“We’ve identified three areas in our business that have the biggest impact on the environment: our stores and operations, the food we serve, and how this food is produced. For each we set specific targets we aim to achieve by 2030.

In addition to its dairy initiative, Domino’s is expanding the use of electric vehicles in its supply chain and delivery fleet, as well as increasing the use of electric ovens where renewable energy allows this.
