We commit to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions associated with purchased goods andservices by 28% by 2030 from a 2019 base year.

We will continually assess water risks and water use in our supply chain and implement initiatives to conserve water resources.

* T he increase was mainly due to temporary procurement increases from Tanzania and other nations that will require
more time to shift to renewable energy sources in the leaf-drying process, as a result of business scale expansion
and climatic influences.
To shift to renewable energy sources, we have been putting effort into planting in these countries, with projected
positive effects in the future. By following through on initiatives like this, we project achieving carbon-neutral
operations by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050.
