    • ]]>     The EcoCert principles of organic farming are based on respect for cultures and local job creation.  Sambazon Acai has just received this certification for its acai crops as Fair Trade in Brazil.  EcoCert was founded in 1991 and certifies organic farmers around the world.  It recognizes the benefits of organic farming as respect for the earth’s resources, long term yields, nutrient-rich foods and energy-saving.

    More about Sambazon’s socially responsible policies:

    “Sambazon’s certification occurs in conjunction with Fair Trade Month, which promotes and celebrates the socially responsible system of trade that prioritizes the needs of human beings and the environment over the drive for profits. The certification supports all three pillars of Sambazon’s triple bottom line business model (people-planet-profits) by guaranteeing that the agro-forestry farms and the families who supply Sambazon with acai fruit receive a fair market price.”
