In this environment, there are several the Group, as a global distributor, faces due to climate change. These include physical risks with increased likelihood of more extreme events such as storms, and heatwaves which could affect the business’s physical sites or its distribution process. A further risk is regulatory change, often by governments, designed to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. These may render certain products obsolete whilst increasing demand for others. Other potential impacts include increases, for example, in the costs of air transport of inventory to meet customer demands. There is also reputation risk if the business is not seen to be taking deliberate and tangible actions to reduce its GHG emissions.
