The goals set for Brazil from Nestle include adopting a regenerative approach to obtain 30% of main raw materials by 2025. This includes recycling all plastic released into the Brazilian market and conserving 300,000 hectares of land in the Amazon, thus generating income and promoting education for 4,000 people. In Brazil, Nestlé has three pillars towards these objectives. One of them is regenerative agriculture. The goal is to produce food while restoring habitats, protecting biodiversity around production areas and reducing GHG emissions, thus creating a positive impact through its main supply chains, such as coffee, milk and cocoa
The information presented in the map comes from a review of publicly available secondary sources, mainly from business communication media (websites, social networks). The Consortium is not responsible for the information and veracity of the practices and impacts publicly reported by businesses and support actors in these media.
It is important to consider that businesses at different levels of development and transition are presented here. On the one hand, there are businesses that do not use the term “regenerative”, but that are very close to our understanding of RFB. On the other hand, there are cases that call themselves "regenerative” but, in practice, they don't necessarily align as much to the definition proposed by the Consortium. Even so, it seemed essential to include them in the map, in order to have a general overview of the different types of businesses that in some way approach or appropriate the use of this term.
The actors presented on the map are those who, as part of their activities, are supporting (or supported) regenerative food businesses and their ecosystem, directly or indirectly. Likewise, these actors were identified through a review of publicly available secondary sources (websites, social networks, news, etc.).
