Pip & Nut has built credible sustainability foundations — B Corp certified, SBTi-aligned net zero targets, no palm oil, and active supply chain engagement — but lacks the verification and transparency to back scale-up claims. Emissions trajectory unproven, Scope 3 data fragmented, and offset methodology opaque.
