Melitta’s sustainability reporting features general language and commitments concerning the coffee supply chain. However, it lacks specific goals and targets, such as timebound zero deforestation commitments. Notably, both the social inclusion and economic viability issue areas appear to be work in progress. Worth noting is Melitta’s reliance on a 2020 sustainability report, with a 2021 update for communicating its sustainability efforts, suggesting potential undisclosed progress. For instance, Melitta is presently fine-tuning its Scope 3 efforts and is preparing to participate in the Science Based Target Initiative (SBTI).
