Manifesto

Regeneration is our nature.

Amazonian flavors carry stories, where life flows from rivers to deep roots. Ecosystems interconnect, support one another, and keep the forest alive.

Within this balance, innovation plays a key role. We aim to improve at every step.

We connect those who grow, transform, and bring forward the best of the Amazon—creating value while contributing to its preservation.

Cooperation is essential to sustaining this balance. It builds lasting relationships and reveals flavors that reflect the richness of the forest.

What we do

We connect people to flavors that regenerate

We source high-quality ingredients from the Amazon rainforest—where biodiversity expresses its full potential.

At Central Xingu, our role is to transform this richness into products with consistent quality and strong sensory identity.

Our way of doing it

01.

Quality
& Consistency

Quality is not improvised. It is cultivated.
From seed to final product, we apply strict standards at every step to ensure sensory precision and consistency. We combine field expertise, rigorous post-harvest practices, and targeted innovation to reveal the full potential of each ingredient.

Applied Innovation

We combine traditional knowledge with technology, using precise monitoring to improve each step of the process.

Meaningful Partnerships

We build long-term, fair relationships with producers committed to quality, from planting to harvest.

Precision Post-Harvest

We develop tailored fermentation, drying, and storage protocols to enhance flavor and ensure consistency across batches and harvests.

Our way of doing it

02.

Regeneration
& Preservation

Creating value also means caring for the forest.

We design production systems that support conservation and restoration—combining agroforestry, active regeneration, and standing forest models to align economic viability with positive environmental impact.

Forest ecosystems generate value. We cultivate ingredients within agroforestry systems, support the recovery of degraded land, and prioritize products that exist because the forest is preserved.

Agroforestry Systems (AFS)

We replicate the logic of the forest with biodiverse crops that regenerate the soil and ensure resilient and sustainable production.

Regenerative Transition

We support farmers in the productive restoration of degraded areas, offering technical support, inputs and joint action in the field.

Standing Forest

We value ingredients from preserved territories, where the protection of the forest generates real income, without deforestation.

Our way of doing it

03.

Transparency
& Traceability

Trust does not appear on its own. It is built.

We support each ingredient from origin to destination—with presence, method, and accountability—so trust is built on concrete foundations.

We prioritize direct, long-term partnerships, connecting those who grow with those who transform, and ensuring transparency across environmental, social, and economic dimensions.

Trusted Relationships

We are the link between those who cultivate and those who transform, with real and lasting bonds on both sides of the chain.

Real Transparency

We believe in open doors. We welcome our partners on the ground and share clear data on practices, contexts, and impacts.

Accessible Traceability

We collect and communicate essential data with simple and effective tools, facilitating informed decisions and strengthening trust.

Our impact is nascent—but it already carries the strength of a forest.

We build results over time, through consistency, patience, and deep roots.

Where we are

Sítio Pé Na Mata is our base in the heart of the Amazon.

Located about 30 minutes from Altamira, Sítio Pé Na Mata spans 13 hectares along the Igarapé Panelas, a tributary of the Xingu River. Half of the land remains forested. It is both our operational base and a living demonstration of our approach: regenerate ecosystems, produce with discipline, and prove it in practice.

    Glossary

    Glossary

    AGROFORESTRY

    A form of land use that integrates tree species and agricultural crops in arrangements that replicate the structure and ecological processes of the forest. It stimulates natural regeneration, conserves biodiversity and promotes environmental balance , generating food, income and lasting benefits for the soil and climate.

    PROCESSING

    Stage of transformation of raw materials into inputs or products of higher value. In the case of cocoa, it mainly involves the processes of selection, fermentation and drying, which are fundamental for the development of flavor and quality.

    BIOECONOMY

    Economic model based on the sustainable use of natural resources and biodiversity, promoting development combined with forest conservation and the well-being of communities.

    REGENERATIVE VALUE CHAINS

    Productive networks that restore the environment and strengthen communities, promoting positive impact instead of just extracting resources.

    STANDING FOREST

    A concept that values the economic, social and environmental benefits generated by the preserved forest, demonstrating that conserving can be more profitable and sustainable than deforesting.

    INNOVATION

    At Central Xingu, it represents the union between traditional knowledge and new technologies to improve production processes, value Amazonian ingredients and strengthen regenerative practices.

    TRACEABILITY

    Ability to follow the path of a product from its origin to the final consumer, ensuring transparency, trust and responsibility in the production chains.

    REGENERATION

    Process of restoring ecosystems and production practices, seeking to restore vitality to the soil and the forest — and not just reduce negative impacts.

    AGROFORESTRY SYSTEMS (ASFS)

    Multistratum cultivation models that integrate trees of different sizes, agricultural crops and sometimes animal husbandry, organized in layers as in a mature forest. They promote high biodiversity, soil protection, and climate resilience, while ensuring productivity and income generation over time.

    SOCIOBIODIVERSITY

    Integration between biological diversity and the knowledge, cultures and ways of life of local communities, valuing both natural resources and traditional knowledge.
