How we play sustainability

How do we act? What do we commit to? How do we do it?

DECATHLON commits to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2050.

At DECATHLON, we are aware that our activities have a significant impact on our environment, our playgrounds. As sportsmen and women, we see this every day in the places where we play.

That's why DECATHLON is committed to helping achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, in line with the Paris Agreement.

In the near-term, DECATHLON commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 42% by 2030 from a 2021 base year.
DECATHLON also commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions 42% within the same timeframe.

An ambition validated by SBTi, a corporate climate action organization that enables companies and financial institutions worldwide to play their part in combating the climate crisis.

This ambition represents a significant shift from its previous strategy, which focused on reducing its economic intensity.

An adventure started in 1976

DECATHLON is more than just a brand name. It's a real story, a human adventure that began in 1976.

Michel Leclercq's idea was to sell equipment for several sports rather than just one, so that everyone could choose their sport. With a philosophy that emphasised the quality of first price products and the accessible price of the top-of-the-range product, Michel Leclercq had a very effective sense of business.
