Proforest is a unique, non-profit group. We support companies, governments, civil society and other organisations to work towards the responsible production and sourcing of agricultural and forest commodities.

What we do

At Proforest we’re passionate about helping people produce and source agricultural and forest commodities responsibly. That’s why we support companies throughout supply chains to have positive social and environmental outcomes in the places where commodities are produced.

Our focus

Our work supports agricultural commodity production and sourcing that can deliver positive social and environmental outcomes. This means working with producers and supply chains to have positive impacts for the people and places where commodities are produced.

Proforest Brazil supports McDonald’s to develop and deploy strategies to implement their Commitment on Forests across five priority products: beef, chicken (including soy in feed), palm oil, coffee and fibre. The strategies vary according to each product, but commonly involve action within supply chains such as:

supply chain mapping
risk assessment and prioritization
supplier engagement
action plans
verification through certification schemes or alternative approaches such as geographic information systems
monitoring and reporting

Actions beyond supply chains include engagement with multistakeholder initiatives; engagement with other industry organisations; forums and standards; and support for jurisdictional approaches.
