Fauna

FROM BIODIVERSITY RESILIENCE TO BUSINESS VALUE

At Cordillera, biodiversity is not just a claim — it is managed, measured and scalable. Our approach enables us to identify migratory and endangered species, strengthen biological corridors, align agricultural practices with conservation, increase farm resilience and productivity, and transfer this knowledge to cacao growers across the country, amplifying environmental, social and productive impact throughout the cocoa value chain.

● 34 Migratory species
● 10 species listed by IUCN*
● 63 species listed by CITES**

This is how we build sustainable shared value across the entire chain: environmental, social and economical.

WHY PARTNER WITH CORDILLERA IN THIS INITIATIVE?

We offer much more than cacao:

● Science – Positive validated biodiversity data
● Full traceability from bean to chocolate
● Expertise in agroforestry systems
● Scalable impact at a national level
● Real input for ESG goals and commitments
● Authentic origin stories rooted in territory and in nature
