Agrovision pioneers a contemporary model of agribusiness that extends far beyond mere profitability. The company is driven by the mission to positively impact the communities in Peru, Mexico, and Morocco by actively contributing to the enhancement of local economies and the overall quality of life. Through its initiatives, Agrovision aims to foster sustainable growth, empower local stakeholders, and uplift the socio-economic fabric of these regions.
The company's approach harmonizes agriculture with nature, exemplified by initiatives like the Sembrando Futuro Program.
“Through this venture, we safeguard the biosphere ecosystem of the forest reserve in Morrope, Peru, preserving 1,980 hectares of dry forests and protecting native flora and fauna,” says Steve Magami, the co-founder, CEO, and executive chairman of Agrovision. “Our subsidiary, Arena Verde, in Peru, has become a carbon-neutral company thanks to its compensation activities with the conservation of the dry forest and the planting of new trees as part of its afforestation program.”
Agrovision places utmost importance on the responsible stewardship of water resources. It has attained the prestigious Alliance Water Stewardship (AWS) international certification for the subsidiaries, Agrovision Peru and Arena Verde. This certification underscores the company’s dedication to maintaining exceptionally high standards in the efficient management and safeguarding of water resources.
The Agrovision Peru team has also achieved remarkable recognition as a finalist at the Latin American level in the esteemed Green Awards 2022. It competed in the Sustainable Economy and Production category, showcasing its commitment to fostering sustainable practices. Additionally, in 2021, it proudly secured the 2nd place award in the Sustainable Production subcategory under the biodiversity category at the prestigious Green Awards—an internationally acclaimed sustainability festival. Notably, Agrovision’s 'Sembrando Futuro' project earned its place among the 50 most impactful projects in Latin America.
Beyond accolades, Agrovision's social impact is substantial. Generating more than 15,000 local jobs, with 45 percent filled by women, the company fosters gender equity and enhances living conditions in regions like Morrope and Olmos in Peru. With alignment to 11 of the UN's sustainable development goals, Agrovision's strides signify a future where company success intertwines seamlessly with environmental stewardship and community upliftment.

Amid interactions with clients and industry leaders, Agrovision confronts the challenge of climate change head-on. The company's strategic planting of climate-resilient blueberry varieties and diversified cultivation areas in Peru positions it favorably against challenges like El Niño's impact on blueberry production.
The company's collaboration with tech partners in next-gen agriculture, AI, and automation, along with initiatives like the AI-driven fruit counting pilot program and waste management projects, makes it stand out in the industry.
What sets Agrovision apart is not just its business success but its alignment with the UN's sustainable development goal #3, aiming to improve global health and wellness. By offering superior berries rich in antioxidants and essential nutrients, the company contributes to reducing the risk of chronic diseases like heart ailments, certain cancers, dementia, and type 2 diabetes.
“Our journey encapsulates a vision where sustainable agribusiness intertwines seamlessly with ecological preservation, societal empowerment, and global health improvement,” says Magami. “It's a testament to how a company's growth can be intertwined with creating a better world for future generations.”
