Balancing retailer climate commitment with food security

This week, after the usual milk market report from Chris Walkland, Will and Ben are joined by Chris Brown, Senior Director of Sustainable Supply Chains at Asda and Rachael Madeley-Davies, Kite’s Head of Sustainability, to discuss the BRC’s ambition for all food products in the UK to achieve Net Zero by 2040 and the associated requirements for reducing carbon emissions on farm. Chris Brown shares his insight on ASDA’s ongoing climate commitments and goes onto discuss with Rachael whether recent events in Ukraine and a focus on food security could change such climate commitments.
