Plan for heat, flood, and wind so stores and DCs stay open and insurable.
Scope 1–3 Roadmaps with ROI
Start with the numbers, then a phased plan that keeps finance and ops onside.

A tea exporter mapped Scope 1–3 and found most emissions sat with transport and packaging, not boilers. Quick wins came first: LED swaps and HVAC tuning across warehouses (funded by the savings themselves), then a phased switch of company cars to hybrids, then solar + storage on two high-use depots where outages hurt most. Suppliers got simple scorecards and quarterly check-ins, not 30-page questionnaires that everyone ignores. Keep it Kenyan: align with our grid realities and diesel back-up habits, and show KES payback next to tCO2e cuts. Train site teams so they own the changes—otherwise the old habits creep back. Add a short change-management plan (who checks what, how often) and a note on incentives or penalties so suppliers take it seriously. A clear abatement curve with cashflows, local incentives, and a short risk note is what gets CFOs to sign and operations to stay engaged.
