Our Targets

• To create a virtuous circle that can be adopted by numerous communities, associations and local co-operatives as the projects are being extended and new partnerships established;
• To live up to the challenges and expectations posed by the international cosmetics and food marketplace concerning new and unique ingredients and by working closely together with companies on a global scale, who share the common sustainable visions, values and actions to introduce an innovative, sustainable business model;
• To strengthen long-lasting and fruitful partnerships, which produce proven and measurable results.

Our Motivation

• To work closely together with an important initiative and a reliable organisation;
• To take up the opportunity to disseminate best practices of environmental protection and biodiversity conservation;
• To work closely together with a selected group of companies who share the same vision aiming to create partnerships for sustainable projects.

Our Focus

We advocate the 'versatile use of the forest' through Beraca's Biodiversity Enhancement Programme. The programme supports local communities and co-operatives to make the best of Brazil's biodiversity by introducing alternative vegetal species to the local population to avoid monoculture and the cutting down of trees for the lack of commercially valuable alternatives. In addition, it empowers and adds quality to the values of entrepreneurship and creates mindsets that focus on economic alternatives aside from deforestation.
