Rainforest Alliance Certified Product Seal

The image features the 'People & Nature' seal of the Rainforest Alliance, an international non-profit organization. This logo is not a brand of a specific physical product like a snack or beverage, but rather a certification mark indicating that an ingredient or product was produced using methods that support social, economic, and environmental sustainability.

Originally founded in the United States in 1987, the Rainforest Alliance merged with the Dutch organization UTZ in 2018 to create a unified global standard. Products carrying this frog seal are manufactured globally by thousands of different brands across categories like coffee, tea, chocolate, and fruit. While the certification body is headquartered in the USA and the Netherlands, the ultimate 'ownership' lies with the non-profit organization itself rather than a corporate conglomerate.
