Climate and Net Zero Targets
Scope 1 and 2: Yes but different baseline, Mango has set a 80% absolute reduction of scope 1 & 2 emissions by 2030, compared to 2019.

Scope 3: No. Mango has set a 35% absolute reduction of Scope 3 emissions by 2030, compared to 2019.

Mid-term (2035/2040) milestones: No. The company told Stand.earth it is in the process of refining its Net Zero roadmap with clear milestones and will publicly disclose progress as it develops.

Net Zero Roadmap: Mango commits to achieve net-zero by
2050 but no clear roadmap.

Renewable Energy Targets
Own operations RE target: Yes has a target. Mango signed a long-term renewable energy supply agreement (PPA) with Acciona Energía, valid for ten years. The company has purchased RE through EACs.

Supply chain RE target: Brand has target but only 30%.
By 2030, Mango will source a minimum of 30% of its production with renewable energy* and 30% renewable electricity. The company told Stand.earth it acknowledges the need for a higher ambition level and is exploring ways to scale renewable energy adoption further within its supply chain.

Thermal Coal Phase Out
2030 Coal Phase-out Target: Yes – By 2030, all Tier 1 and Tier 2 facilities used by Mango productions will be thermal coal free.

Thermal energy transition/ electrification: Yes – By 2025, Mango will not accept new facilities using thermal coal (or other fossil fuels). For the already active facilities that are currently using thermal coal, our plan is to not stop working with them, but rather help them make the transition to renewable energy and electrification of energy-intensive processes, through the introduction of collaborative decarbonizations projects and initiatives that organizations such as Cascale and Fashion Pact are working on

Transparency
Emissions data: Does share Scope 1 – 3. Category breakdown is assigned a score on reliability, and results. Does not provide a clear breakdown by volume but does provide % of overall emissions.

Supply chain energy data: No. Company communicated it is developing a framework for supply chain energy reporting, aiming to expand disclosure to include thermal energy sources and electricity consumption by supplier tier and country.

Supplier lists published: Shares list to Tier 3. Has a presence in Bangladesh. In 2022, had 78, just over 10% of factories

Training, feasibility studies, and non-financial support for climate action
Unclear on training. Company says holds an annual manufacturing summit and ‘Mango seeks to develop strategic alliances that enable its suppliers to improve their environmental performance and, consequently, reduce their emissions. To this end, Mango is evaluating options for collaborative projects with industry to support its suppliers in their decarbonisation strategy.’The company told Stand.earth that guidelines and recommendations have been shared with suppliers to improve energy efficiency and transition to renewable energies.

Additional, targeted support for transition planning: Unclear

Financial Support for Decarbonization
Loans and financing: Yes – through Future Supplier Initiative. Mango communicated to Stand.earth that it is actively exploring additional financial mechanisms, including participation in collective financing initiatives.

Collective financing initiatives: No evidence.

Direct/debt-free financing: No evidence.

Responsible/equitable buying to enable climate action
Purchasing decisions incentivize climate action: Partial. In Mango’s supplier scorecard, the environmental sustainability accounts for a 15% of the overall grade. In 2024, this scorecard is being revised to make sure all ESG sustainability KPIs obtain a bigger portion on the overall assessment

Equitable/long-term sourcing to enable climate action: No

Prices enable climate action: No

Climate Adaptation
Adaptation/worker just transition training funded or provided: Yes through Future Supplier Initiative

Emergency support developed with local groups: No

Decarbonization Progress
Reducing manufacturing emissions: No. Scope 3 category 1 has increased YOY, while full scope 3 data shows emissions remained steady since 2019.

Increasing supply chain renewable electricity: No

Coal phase out transition progress: No

Commitment to phase out fossil fuel-derived fibers
No – 100% of the materials used in its garments more sustainable and with a lower environmental impact by 2030.

Deforestation-free materials
Leather: Company still uses some conventional leather. By the year 2030, Mango pledges to source 100% of bovine leather from a deforestation/conversion-free supply chain.
It is working to do so through Participation in Deforestation and Conversion-Free Leather project and investment in Leather Impact Partnership Incentives to boost responsible practices in Brazil.

Man-made Cellulosic Fibers: Yes, through Canopy. Has the goal that by 2025 100% MMCF will be lower environmental impact.

Low-carbon materials
Company shared a handful of examples with Stand.earth. This includes Collaboration with Retexcat to manufacture garments from textile waste, investment in RECOVO through Mango Startup Studio, a Startup to reuse textile waste from production, partnership with Coleo Recycling to manage the recycling of unsold stock and use of Circulose.

Increasing Circularity
Mango aims for 100% preferred materials by 2030, yet when it comes to cotton only 2.9% is currently derived from recycled sources. It has engaged in a regenerative cotton project with Materra.
The company does not offer resale services or in-store repairs.
It has engaged in a handful of pilot initiatives. For instance, it worked with Retexcat to manufacture garments from textile waste, invested in RECOVO to reuse textile waste from production and has partnered with Coleo Recycling to manage the recycling of unsold stock and use of Circulose.

Target & increase recycled cotton
Recycled cotton accounts for 2.9% of total cotton. No specific targets to increase recycled.Broad goals; Mango aims to make 100% of the materials used in its garments more sustainable and with a lower environmental impact by 2030.
Textile Exchange Preferred Fibre and Material Matrix (PFMM). The company aims that by 2025, 100% of the cotton used will be of lower impact.

100% recycled/organic/regen cotton + wool, report on progress
Not yet, reliant on better cotton currently 92% of all cotton. The company aims that by 2025, 100% of the cotton used will be of lower impact.

Support farmers, transition to regen/organic farming
Yes – partnership with Materra, a British-Indian company which specialises in designing solutions for growing and sourcing regenerative cotton, in order to incorporate for the first time a fibre originating from regenerative agriculture in selected garments in its collection in 2024.
The project will allow Mango to use cotton that has been cultivated using sustainable agricultural practices with a positive environmental impact for the region and biodiversity, as well as complete traceability of its cotton value chain, from the soil to the final garment.

Does not offer resale. Company says it will repair defective products or return and exchange.

Direct link resale/repair to reduce production
No

Materials transparency
Shares material mix: Yes – provides clear detail on weight, % of fibre basket and breakdown by different types within each fibre. Strong level of transparency.

Provides data on units sold: No

Although Mango has a target to cut emissions in its upstream logistics, the company shared limited information about its approach, beyond considering route efficiency for road logistics. The brand’s emissions remained relatively flat over the past year., and it does not share data on its transportation modes.
