Through innovative partnerships in Brazil and Suriname, we help local communities sustainably source natural oils while protecting biodiversity.
Our Mission
We empower cosmetic brands to enhance their sustainability efforts by sourcing directly from indigenous communities in Brazil and Suriname, contributing to poverty alleviation and rainforest protection.
Our Vision
We envision a world where leading brands worldwide work alongside BioTara to protect 4 million hectares of forest, sequestering 3.2 million tons of CO2 annually, and lifting 10,000 families out of poverty.
Our Target
Our Story
BioTara was created to bridge the disconnect between global markets and local forest-based communities, particularly in Brazil and Suriname. These communities have historically lacked access to capital and technology, making it difficult for them to benefit from the sustainable, nature-positive products of their ecosystems. By focusing on equitable partnerships, we empower local ventures to thrive, reducing forest loss, poverty, and vulnerability, while ensuring the conservation of the world’s most valuable stewards of the rainforest.
