"In 2010, JBS implemented a system that monitors and verifies conditions on all supplier properties to ensure that all animal purchases comply with the Company’s social and environmental criteria. Every day, JBS analyzes more than 90,000 cattle suppliers in Brazil using satellite imagery, farm geo-referencing data and information from government agencies. The JBS monitoring system analyzes satellite imagery of supplier farms that covers around 450 thousand km2 (111 million acres) in over 400 municipalities in the Amazon region. This is equivalent to an area the size of Spain."

"The company only purchases soy from suppliers that signed the Soy Moratorium. Thus, 100% of JBS soy suppliers, in Brazil, are incompliance with Soy Moratorium criteria. In 2017, the company restructured its Compliance department. The area now has aGlobal Director, responsible for the implementation and supervision of initiatives in all regions of JBS. To that end, a neworganizational structure was defined with the hiring of more resources to ensure that business practices ensure ethics and goodconduct for all, as well as compliance with all internal laws, policies and procedures. One of the pillars of action is Due Diligence. InOctober 2017, JBS began to improve the practices of third party reputational assessment (Due Diligence). Once performedmanually for a few risk segments, the Company hired expert advice on the subject to automate the process as much as possible,with the expectation of increasing the volume of analysis. Currently, the segments mapped with relevant risks are analyzed,including any third party that needs a proxy to act on behalf of JBS. The Due Diligence procedure was integrated into the third-partyregistration process. Thus, at the time of registration, the third parties listed in risk categories will be automatically evaluated by asoftware, being released or disapproved if negative reputational aspects are identified."

"The company has a few business units that produce hygiene and cleaning products with Palm Oil imported fromMalaysia and Indonesia and its suppliers are part of Round Table of Sustainable Palm Oil – RSPO [...] Additionally, in partnership with Espaço ECO Foundation (BASF), JBScompleted a life cycle analysis study palm oil-based soaps. The study analysed the environmental, social and economicperformance of soap of animal and vegetal origin. As a result, the study allowed JBS to make an inventory of processes,to know the main environmental and social impacts of the productive chain and to identify opportunities for improvement,with a focus on continuous improvement. Palm Oil is also used in the food industry, in the frying process of prefabricatedfoods and industrialized products. In this case, 100% of Palm Oil is produced in Brazil, following sustainable productioncertification standards."
