Commitment to the ESG agenda is a fundamental principle for
Ouro Verde and an integral part of our strategy.
We respect the environment and the communities surrounding our
operations. All our initiatives are guided in accordance to ethical and
compliance principles and we constantly monitor the impact of these
actions on the Company’s reputation and society as a whole. Our
ESG Journey establishes solid commitments in 7 strategic pillars:
People, Finance, Governance, Customer Experience, Cyber
Security, Efficiency, and Corporate Culture.

environmental actions. We comply with the highest standards of
quality and environmental responsibility, considering all topics
related to our operations.
