The Brazilian Association of Animal Protein (ABPA), launched this Sunday (08) the international campaign Good Food – Sustainable Protein, the second phase of the campaign started in 2021 that highlights the attributes that differentiate the sustainability of poultry and pork producers in Brazil.

The portal will be constantly updated, including information, articles, videos and other initiatives involving environmental preservation actions, economic and social development and company governance.

But there is much more: there are several initiatives adopted across the country that we want to bring together and tell the world through this campaign”, highlights the president of ABPA, Ricardo Santin.
