For over 10 years, Damien Binois, founder of Nossa Fruits, has been actively committed to stopping deforestation, preserving biodiversity and improving the quality of life of traditional populations in northern Brazil. We are proud to offer Fair for Life-certified acai pulp through our organic and fair trade acai purée Terraçaí by Nossa. This certification represents much more than a simple label: it is the guarantee of a complete ethical approach that includes human rights, working conditions and sustainable agricultural practices.
Partnerships with committed local cooperatives
At Nossa Fruits, we work directly with local cooperatives such as COOPREM and CAEPIM.
Our partner cooperatives play a key role in maintaining the quality and ethics of our supply chain. We're dedicated to ensuring a healthy and respectful working environment, promoting the economic independence of the women who work there, and eradicating all child labor. These partnerships help preserve the Amazon rainforest, while creating economic opportunities for local communities.
Fair for Life certification for a more human approach to trade
The Fair For Life label, issued by ECOCERT, ensures fair and responsible trade. This certification requires minimum purchase volumes calculated on actual production costs, with fair remuneration through multi-year contracts, a minimum price guarantee, and a purchase price 5% higher than that of the organic market. In other words, this label promotes a more humane form of trade, in which the well-being of producers is a central concern.
5% of the total purchase price of each product is reinvested in a development fund used to support social and environmental projects in harvesting communities. This helps support local initiatives, such as improving school infrastructure and preserving biodiversity.
Total transparency for the consumer
Fair for Life certification is not limited to production conditions: it ensures full traceability, from harvesting in the Amazon to the final product in France. Each step is monitored to ensure that the acai you enjoy has been sourced and processed sustainably and responsibly.
- Responsible resource management: water, energy, waste management... everything is designed to reduce our ecological footprint.
- Strictly controlled working conditions: our partner cooperatives are regularly audited to ensure that workers enjoy fair and safe working conditions.
- Zero child labor tolerance: at Nossa Fruits, we make no compromises when it comes to ethics. We are actively committed to eradicating child labor within our production chain, working hand in hand with our partner cooperatives.
Our concrete commitments at Nossa Fruits
Offering a healthy product also means ensuring it is 100% ethical. That's why we're committed to fighting all forms of exploitation and upholding strong values:

- Organic and fair trade certifications: validating our sustainable and respectful approach, they reflect our long-term commitment.
- Regular audits: we carry out frequent checks to ensure that every acai berry is harvested with respect for workers' rights and responsible environmental practices.
