Leading the Way in Sustainable Porridge

1. BACKGROUND

Grød, Denmark’s much-loved porridge bar with 11 locations, partnered with SuFu to take a closer look at their climate impact as part of their goal to become a B Corp.

Our journey started by bringing Grød onto SuFu’s centralized portal, where we worked side by side to map out their boundaries—what to measure and where to focus. Beyond their Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, we dug into five crucial Scope 3 categories to get a fuller picture of their footprint.

Together, we uncovered key carbon emission hotspots for 2023 and laid the foundation for their climate strategy.

Step by step process, from onboarding to delivery

2. OUR PROCESS

We combined different data sources to achieve precise and comprehensive emissions tracking pulling data from different sources:

Automation: By connecting to Grød accounting software and El Overblik system, we automatically pulled data on invoices and electricity use.
Filling in the Blanks: Employees shared commuting data through custom questionnaires, and we worked closely with suppliers to gather details on products and ingredients.
Getting Granular: Grød’s chefs helped us document recipes, cooking methods, and ingredient details, allowing for precise emissions calculations across their menu.

This detailed analysis enables us to dive deep into over 10,000 purchased ingredients, providing a comprehensive breakdown of emissions by scope, category, business unit, time frame, supplier, and product category.

For every data point, we made sure that both assumptions and references were clearly documented, giving Grød complete transparency and confidence in their numbers.

Once the carbon accounting was complete, we worked with Grød to create clear and actionable reduction strategies.

3. IMPACT

Now, Grød has the data they need for their B Corp application and to make informed decisions when it comes to their sustainability strategy. They can focus their efforts where it matters most, with a roadmap that aligns their practices with their values.

Together, we:

Pinpointed emission hotspots across their operations.
Prioritized reduction opportunities based on impact, cost, and effort.
Shared steps for improving data quality to make future reporting even stronger.
