MBRF launches its first Integrated Report and consolidates progress in its Sustainability agenda
Report provides a comprehensive view of MBRF’s operations in 2025, connecting strategy, performance, governance, and sustainability in value creation for the business and society
MBRF, one of the largest food companies in the world, is launching its first Integrated Report, bringing together key information on the company’s domestic and international operations in 2025, as well as progress across its ESG agenda, people management, business development, and other strategic fronts. The report reflects the strength of a company that is already born with scale, efficiency, and strong innovation capabilities. It is prepared based on a double materiality process, following the integrated reporting model and best reporting practices, aligned with the guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the International Integrated Reporting Council, in addition to adhering to the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) indicators.
“Throughout 2025, we achieved significant progress, with deliverables that strengthened our sustainability platform and expanded the reach of our initiatives. More than isolated results, these milestones demonstrate the consolidation of our role as a benchmark in responsible practices in the animal protein sector and reflect our ongoing commitment to food production that balances productivity with low greenhouse gas emissions and is deforestation-free,” says Paulo Pianez, MBRF’s Director of Sustainability and Institutional Relations.
During the year, MBRF advanced its growth and business consolidation agenda, with milestones that expand its global presence and reinforce its focus on higher value-added products.
The company completed the acquisition of an industrial facility in China, strengthening its presence in one of the world’s most strategic markets. In the same period, it received approval to resume exports to the European Union, opening new opportunities for expansion in highly demanding markets. In addition, the company secured new export authorizations, including the resumption of poultry exports to the European Union.
Another highlight was the creation of Sadia Halal, consolidating a relevant multi-protein platform in a key region and bringing its brands even closer to local consumers. These moves add to the completion of the merger between Marfrig and BRF, which gave rise to MBRF—now one of the largest food companies in the world, present in 117 countries, with a diversified portfolio, 37 brands, and an annual production capacity of 8.2 million tons—reinforcing its global relevance and contribution to food security.
Sustainability and governance remain a strategic pillar for MBRF. The consistent evolution of its sustainability practices has been recognized by the market. The company maintained leadership across beef, poultry, and pork segments in the FAIRR Initiative ranking. In CDP, it achieved a Triple A rating—the highest score—across all three assessed dimensions: Climate Change, Water Security, and Forests. It is also part of the portfolios of the Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE) and ICO2, both from B3.
The company reached 100% monitoring of its cattle and grain supply chains, both direct and indirect, reinforcing its commitment to deforestation- and conversion-free supply chains. Through the Verde+ Program, focused on supply chain traceability, it continues to promote responsible and inclusive supplier management, contributing to the socio-environmental advancement of the chain.
In climate action, the company advanced with the Low Carbon Beef Protocol (CBC), developed in partnership with Embrapa and launched at COP30, and expanded the use of renewable electricity in its operations, moving toward its goal of 100% by 2030. It also maintained 100% of its slaughter units audited under international animal welfare standards and completed its global commitment to exclusively use cage-free eggs in processed products.
In the circular economy pillar, 90% of the company’s packaging is already classified as recyclable after use, increasing the potential for material recovery. It also launched a special edition of Qualy Vegê, a margarine line from Qualy, featuring packaging developed from the transformation of used cooking oil into recycled plastic.
On the social responsibility front, the company reached 100,000 people supported through the +Juntos pelo Sul campaign, aimed at assisting victims of flooding in Rio Grande do Sul. The period also saw a 41% increase in volunteer participation in social initiatives promoted by the MBRF Institute, as well as a 60% expansion of the Diversity Ambassadors Program, which brings together more than 300 active participants across different units and offices. The company also met its public target of reaching 1.5 million people with educational content on reducing food loss and waste.
In human capital, MBRF continues to invest consistently in the development and well-being of its employees through structured education and training programs, strengthening capabilities and supporting the building of an organization increasingly prepared for future challenges.
With consistent progress in its strategy and the consolidation of a resilient global operation, MBRF reinforces its ability to generate value sustainably, balancing growth, efficiency, and responsibility across its entire operation and value chain, meeting the growing global demand for food with quality, innovation, and scale across different markets.
