Carbon Reduction Plan
Executive Summary
This Carbon Reduction Plan outlines Nupo's commitment to achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions and details our strategy for reducing carbon emissions across our operations.
Nupo is a Danish nutrition and weight-management company, founded in 1981, specialising in Total Diet Replacement (TDR) products, meal replacements, and related supplements. The company sells across 21 countries, offering structured diet plans, meal replacement bars and shakes, and nutritional support products aimed at weight loss and weight management.
Our baseline emissions for 2025 (1st January 2025 to 31st December 2025) totalled 28.90 tCO2e, comprising:
- Scope 1 (Direct emissions): 0.00 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (location based): 0.00 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (market based): 0.00 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (Other indirect emissions): 28.90 tCO2e
This report establishes our baseline emissions for 1st January 2025 to 31st December 2025, totaling 28.90 tCO2e. This baseline will be used for future carbon reduction planning and progress measurement.
We are committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2040 through a comprehensive program of carbon reduction measures, including energy efficiency improvements, renewable energy adoption, and sustainable transport initiatives.
This plan demonstrates our compliance with PPN 006 (previously PPN 06/21) requirements and our ongoing commitment to environmental responsibility and climate action.
Commitment to Net Zero
Baseline Emissions Footprint
Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the baseline audit period. For Nupo this period was the financial period 1st January 2025 to 31st December 2025.
This is Nupo's first year of carbon reporting, completed in line with the required categories of PPN 006. All relevant Scope 3 categories applicable to Nupo's UK operations have been assessed and reported within this document. As Nupo's manufacturing and production activities are based in Denmark, with no owned or leased UK premises, vehicles, or facilities, no Scope 1 or Scope 2 emissions have been reported in this reporting period. Emissions associated with Nupo's UK activities are therefore captured entirely within Scope 3, reflecting the nature of the business as a distributor and seller of goods into the UK market rather than a UK-based operator or manufacturer. The categories reported on are 3.4 Upstream Transportation and Distribution, 3.5 Waste, 3.6 Business Travel and 3.9 Downstream Transportation and Distribution. 3.7 Employee Commuting was not reported on due to there been no staff in the UK.
Baseline: 1st January 2025 to 31st December 2025
| Emissions Scope | Emissions (tCO2e) |
|---|---|
| Scope 1 | 0.00 |
| Scope 2 (location based) | 0.00 |
| Scope 2 (market based) | 0.00 |
| Scope 3 | 28.90 |
| Total Emissions | 28.90 |
Scope 3 Emissions Breakdown
| Scope 3 Category | Emissions (tCO2e) |
|---|---|
| Scope 3.4 Upstream Transport & Distribution | 26.58 |
| Scope 3.5 Waste | 0.01 |
| Scope 3.6 Business Travel | 1.86 |
| Scope 3.9 Downstream Transport & Distribution | 0.45 |
| Total Scope 3 | 28.90 |

Emissions Reduction Trajectory
Key Milestones
Carbon Reduction Measures
The following environmental management measures and projects have been completed or are planned to be completed in the coming financial period. The carbon emission reduction of these measures has been estimated where possible.
Prioritise Lower-Emission Business Travel Options - Low
PlannedFor necessary business travel between Copenhagen and London, we will consider the emissions associated with the full journey, including travel to and from the airports, rather than comparing the flight alone.
Where operationally and commercially practical, we will select a lower-emission direct economy option. Virtual meetings will remain the preferred alternative where physical travel is not necessary.
Consolidate UK Customer Deliveries - Medium
PlannedWe will assess the feasibility of introducing scheduled or subscription-based ordering that allows customers to consolidate planned purchases into fewer, larger deliveries.
Any implementation will be designed to reduce the number of parcels and deliveries per customer while maintaining an appropriate level of service.
Data Quality Improvements - Medium
PlannedWe will work with Prolog, Amazon FBA and the relevant carrier partners to obtain higher-quality and more detailed primary data for future reporting periods. This may include actual order weights, vehicle or fuel types and supplier-specific emissions data.
This will improve the accuracy of our reporting, particularly for transportation and distribution, where the majority of our emissions occur.
Packaging and Order-Volume Optimisation - Medium
PlannedWe will review the weight and volume of transport packaging used for UK orders, including outer cartons and void-fill materials. Where possible, packaging will be right-sized to reduce transported weight and volume without compromising product protection.
Carbon Performance in Annual Courier Reviews - Medium
PlannedAs part of the annual review of courier and fulfilment partners, we will consider carbon performance alongside cost, service levels and delivery quality.
Where reliable data is available, preference will be given to partners that can demonstrate lower-emission fleets, route optimisation, alternative fuels and transparent emissions reporting.
UK-based Fulfilment Partner - High
CompletedDuring 2025, we moved the fulfilment of UK web orders from Denmark to a UK-based fulfilment partner.
Orders are now consolidated into fewer, larger shipments from Denmark to the UK rather than being shipped individually across borders. This is expected to reduce the associated transportation emissions.
Improvements to Pallet Utilisation - High
CompletedWe increased the number of TDR units per pallet from 408 to 637. This improved pallet utilisation and reduced the number of pallets required to transport the same volume of products.
It also supports improved trailer utilisation and fewer transport movements where shipments can be consolidated.

Data Quality Assessment
Emissions data for Scope 3.4 and 3.9 was derived from a range of sources. Where available, high quality actual emissions data was obtained directly from logistics providers. Where this was not available, calculations relied on distance travelled combined with average product weight. The actual emission figures provided by Nupo's logistics partner included the emissions associated with transporting goods to Prolog and Amazon in the UK. For Scope 3.6 (business travel), total spends on each mode of transport were provided and a 10% buffer was added to account for any entries not included in their accounts. For Prolog (UK fulfilment provider) warehouse waste-related emissions were provided as high quality actual emission figures.
Declaration and Sign-Off
This Carbon Reduction Plan has been completed in accordance with PPN 006 and associated guidance and reporting standard for Carbon Reduction Plans.
Emissions have been reported and recorded in accordance with the published reporting standard for Carbon Reduction Plans and the GHG Reporting Protocol corporate standard and uses the appropriate government emission conversion factors for greenhouse gas company reporting.
Scope 1 and scope 2 emissions have been reported in accordance with SECR requirements (where required), and the required subset of scope 3 emissions have been reported in accordance with the published reporting standard for Carbon Reduction Plans and the Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Standard.
This Carbon Reduction Plan has been reviewed and signed off by the board of directors (or equivalent management body).
