For 10 years now, 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-labeled acai pulp on our Terraçaí by Nossa organic and fair trade acai purée. This certification represents much more than a simple label: it is the guarantee of a complete ethical approach integrating human rights, working conditions and good 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 production chain. We take pride in providing 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 providing economic opportunities for local communities.
Fair for Life certification for more humane trade
The Fair For Life label, issued by the ECOCERT group, guarantees fair and responsible trade. This certification imposes minimum purchase volumes calculated on the basis of production costs, with fair remuneration thanks to multi-year contracts, a floor price, 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 goes into a development fund to finance social and environmental projects in picker 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 complete traceability, from harvesting in the Amazon to the final product in France. Each stage is monitored to ensure that the acai you consume has been harvested and processed in a sustainable, environmentally-friendly way.
- Responsible resource management: water, energy, waste management... everything is designed to reduce our ecological footprint.
- Strictly controlled working conditions: our cooperatives are regularly audited to ensure that workers enjoy fair and dignified working conditions.
- Combating child labor: at Nossa Fruits, we make no compromises when it comes to ethics. We are actively committed to combating child labor in our production chains, in collaboration with our partner cooperatives.
