Toby Carvery's parent company M&B has SBTi-validated net zero targets and renewable electricity across its estate, but brand-level data is absent and supply chain emissions remain unquantified. The April 2025 illegal felling of a 500-year-old protected oak tree in Enfield—confirmed alive by Forestry Commission investigators—exposes failures in environmental governance and site management. Water strategy is missing entirely.
