When Scope 3 Emissions From Food Land on Your Desk

An event client wants the carbon data for their conference.

Our CSRD report needs food emissions, with documented methods.

SBTi wants FLAG per product. We don't have it.

Every property tracks it differently, if at all.

Carbon Emissions From Food Now Shape Bookings and Audits

F&B is often your largest Scope 3 source. Here's what's at stake.

Fits Your Platforms

Data flows straight into the sustainability tools for hospitality that you already use.

Want carbon labels on menus for your guests? Add Klimato Carbon Labeling once your data is in place.

“But We Already…” Fair.
Here's the Answer.

“What does this cost us?”

Plans are flexible. Start with what matters most and get a tailored quote.

“We don't have the people.”

We connect and map your data. Reports use last year's purchases, so starting now saves rework.

“We're focusing on food waste first.”

Makes sense. Your food purchases are still part of Scope 3 either way.

“We already have a provider.”

Compare. We'll run your sample data for free, FLAG included.

Hear It From Hotels Themselves

Frequently Asked Questions

Scope 3 Reporting FAQ for Hotel Groups

hotel-food_labelled
Illustrative example.
What are Scope 3 emissions for hotels?

Scope 3 emissions for hotels are the indirect emissions in their value chain. Purchased food and beverages (Scope 3, Category 1) are usually one of the largest shares, so they matter most for CSRD reporting, SBTi targets and event client requests.

What are FLAG emissions in food?

FLAG emissions are greenhouse gas emissions from forest, land and agriculture. Hotel groups with SBTi targets must set a separate FLAG target, so they need FLAG and non-FLAG emissions split per product.

 

How do hotels calculate Scope 3 emissions from food and beverage purchases?

Hotels calculate Scope 3 food emissions by matching each purchased product to an ingredient-level emission factor and multiplying it by the quantity bought. Klimato automates this from your procurement data, instead of using spend-based estimates.

 

Is Klimato's food emissions data ready for CSRD and SBTi?

Yes. Klimato's food emissions data uses a third-party verified methodology aligned with the GHG Protocol, with a FLAG split per product and documented methods your auditors can review.

 

Can Klimato report food emissions across multiple hotel properties?

Yes. Klimato consolidates food emissions across all your properties, so you can compare results by property, brand and market, and share event-level data with corporate clients.

How long does it take to automate Scope 3 emissions reporting for a hotel group?
Most hotel groups are up and running with Klimato within a few weeks. Klimato connects to procurement systems like Millum, Apicbase and Delegate, or works from a spreadsheet, and setup is planned around your busy season.
How much does Klimato cost for hotels?
Klimato's pricing depends on your number of properties and products and the systems you connect. Plans are flexible, so you can start with what matters most and get a tailored quote. See our plans.
What is the difference between Klimato Food Emissions and Klimato Carbon Accounting?

Klimato Food Emissions covers the emissions from your food and beverage purchases. Klimato Carbon Accounting covers your full Scope 1, 2 and 3 footprint. Most hotel groups start with Food Emissions.
