January 12, 2023 EcoVadis EN


McCormick & Company is a food company that manufactures, markets, and distributes spices, seasoning mixes, condiments, and other flavoring products to retail outlets, food manufacturers, and food service businesses. The Baltimore-based company has 14,000 employees based worldwide. Its investments have tangible benefits for farmers and customers and throughout its supply chain.

It is doubling down on its commitment to climate change, environmental compliance, and raw material procurement. It aims to be net zero in 2050, and it has joined the UN”s Science-Based Targets Initiative, which wants to keep temperatures from rising more than 1.5 degrees Celsius. At the same time, the company has made significant progress toward its sustainable packaging goals.

“We continue to significantly invest in energy-efficient facilities and renewable energy resources across our business. We’ve recently completed construction on McCormick’s new manufacturing site in Peterborough, UK, which is on track to become the company’s first Net Zero Carbon building. Additionally, we’re investing in renewable electricity to power 100% of our North American facilities in Maryland, New Jersey, and Texas through Project Skipjack and Big Star Solar,” the company says.
