JLR pushes its suppliers for alignment to meet 2030 sustainability commitments

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is inviting its global supply network to commit to sustainability targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and help reach carbon net zero emissions across JLR's supply chain, products, and operations by 2039. 

JLR believes that achieving net zero emissions across the entire value chain will benefit people, clients, and the planet. JLR's commitments can only be achieved by working with suppliers who share the same vision for change. Therefore, JLR has invited its global Tier 1 supplier network - products, services and logistics - to align with its 2030 goals.

JLR will ask Tier 1 suppliers to set their decarbonisation pathway, report transparently and demonstrate progress towards their targets.

This would involve disclosing their carbon reporting and collaborating with their own supply chain to deliver the same reductions.

This requirement has been shared with JLR's supply network, totalling more than 5,000 companies around the globe.

Through its Reimagine strategy, JLR is undergoing a deep transformation to deliver sustainability-rich modern luxury vehicles by decarbonising its entire value chain, adopting circular economy principles, and transitioning to fully electric product ranges by the end of the decade.
