OLIO scores 48/100 (Making progress) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified May 2026.
That places OLIO joint 132nd of 699 companies scored, and joint 23rd of 60 in SaaS / Digital Services.
OLIO's business model is built on food waste reduction—its core product works. But the company publishes no operational emissions data despite claiming carbon negativity, has no science-aligned targets, and offers zero Scope 1, 2, or 3 quantification. B Corp certification and transparent impact methodology provide some credibility; operational decarbonisation strategy is absent.
