We’re proud to share our FY2025 Sustainability Report, highlighting the progress we have made and the priorities that matter most to our associates, customers and communities.
Our associates are the driving force behind our success, and we continue to invest in their wellbeing through enhanced benefits, training and development. More than 80% completed courses through the Ferguson Academy. In FY2025, our associates volunteered over 14,000 hours and we supported more than 15,000 students through skilled trades training and scholarships. Through Ferguson Cares, we helped expand access to clean water, revitalize neighborhoods and invest in the economic development of our hometown of Newport News.
We made meaningful progress in reducing the environmental impact of our operations. Across North America, 95% of our electricity consumption was matched by renewable generation and we reduced Scope 2 emissions intensity by 89%.1 Our Nashville Market Distribution Center also earned LEED Silver certification for Commercial Interiors, an important milestone in our sustainability journey.
We continued to strengthen governance and accountability across the business. Our updated vendor scorecard better evaluates product quality, safety and compliance – improving transparency across our supply chain. Guided by stakeholder feedback, we refreshed our sustainability priorities and introduced new environmental and social targets.
“We’re focused on continuing to align sustainability with our business strategy,” said Denise Vaughn, Vice President of Sustainability. “By collaborating across the business and listening to our stakeholders, we’re working to ensure our commitments drive operational efficiency, customer value and community impact.”
We recognize there is more work ahead and remain committed to continuous improvement. With a clear focus and a shared purpose, we’re working with our partners to help build a more sustainable and resilient future. Read more about our efforts and explore the full report:
