Reports Scope 1 and 2 under SECR regulations using location and market-based methods, with stated intensity reductions from 2023–2024. Tonnage figures buried in PDF; no third-party assurance. As a 160-site chain, operational emissions from gas cooking and refrigeration are material but inadequately disclosed.

TRG quantified 95% of emissions as Scope 3, with 75% from purchased goods. Partnered with Normative to map supply chain emissions, identified top 100 contributing suppliers, and built tiered carbon maturity framework for engagement. Methodology-backed quantification with active supplier governance.

FY2024 reports intensity reductions but no absolute emissions data. Wagamama actively expanding (new UK sites, US acquisition, India airport plans in 2024), indicating absolute emissions growth masked by efficiency gains. No public absolute reduction pathway.

TRG procures renewable electricity, gas, and LPG for all directly contracted supplies. Material gap: landlord-supplied sites (airports, shopping centres) excluded from renewable commitments. Majority of operational energy covered but not total.

50% plant-based menu, ASC/RSPCA seafood sourcing, cage-free eggs reduce land pressure. However, 100k+ signature petition criticised farmed salmon sourcing for ecosystem damage; Wagamama switched to Scottish RSPCA-accredited source rather than eliminating salmon. No TNFD disclosure or quantified nature footprint.

Plate waste audits, ingredient utilisation training, takeaway packaging shifted to recycled materials (330 tonnes virgin plastic displaced). Removed plastic straws and single-use wooden cutlery. PANGAIA circular uniforms. TRG policy commits to annual waste tonnage reporting but specific metrics not publicly disclosed.

TRG benchmarks restaurants by daily water usage, uses data validation for leak detection. Environmental policy commits to reviewing conservation tech (harvesting, flow restriction, metering) and annual m³ reporting. No quantified reduction targets or third-party verification found.

TRG committed to net-zero by 2040 aligned with Zero Carbon Forum (sectoral target, not science-validated). No SBTi validation. Pathway relies on offsetting residual emissions by 2035 before full decarbonisation. 50% plant-based is meaningful but not quantified as emissions target.

Annual report contains SECR-compliant emissions and TCFD-aligned climate scenario analysis. ESG governance via CEO-chaired SteerCo and quarterly committee. No standalone sustainability report, no B Corp certification. Private ownership (Apollo) reduces public scrutiny.

100k+ signature petition by Feedback and WildFish opposed farmed salmon for ecosystem damage to wild fish. Wagamama switched to RSPCA-accredited Scottish salmon rather than eliminating it. No regulatory fines, greenwashing rulings, or climate lobbying concerns identified.
