Pho operates 45–50 UK restaurants with zero emissions disclosure, no carbon targets, and no sustainability strategy despite c.£79M revenue and ongoing expansion. The company reports no Scope 1, 2, or 3 data; has made no energy transition commitments; and provides no environmental governance or accountability structure. A growing food business with material operational footprint and supply chain risk actively avoiding measurement.
