Agribusiness is an important sector in JGP’s history. We have been responsible for some very significant projects working under mandates from IFC, IDB and/or European Development Finance Institutions or their clients. This work has included pioneering work in development of E&S Management Systems (see AMaggi Group’s ESMS) that have included supply chain stewardship and traceability procedures for leading soybean and sugar trading companies, as well as for major meat processing corporations which jointly operate over 50 industrial facilities throughout Brazil.
E&S Due Diligence assessments for Lenders as well as impact assessments have been conducted on over 30 sugar and ethanol mills and their corresponding sugarcane plantations.
Commercial forestry plantations supplying pulp and paper mills totaling over 500,000 hectares as well as palm oil refineries and their corresponding plantations have been assessed for Lenders on projects in Brazil and Mexico.
