BEEF TRACEABILITY

The actions taken were: 1) Robust governance with the establishment of a Forestry Committee, composed of external experts and company C-level executives, to support the agenda of combating deforestation and conserving forests, updating the Policy for Purchasing Fresh Beef, signed by the meatpacking plants, and defining targets. 2) Development of a systemic interface with meatpacking plants, with automated transmission of the origination of direct farms for each batch of meat purchased. 3) Structuring of a process for the homologation and socio-environmental monitoring of suppliers, using satellite imagery and applying consequential measures, being the first retailer to monitor farms in the Cerrado biome and, in partnership with the meatpacking plants, expanding its operations to other biomes, also incorporating the Mapbiomas Alert in all of them.
