In February 2016, Eldorado started acquiring organic produce planted in the settlement Pontal do Faia in Três Lagoas for use in the factory restaurant. In June, the company also began to buy produce from the Alecrim settlement in Selvíria for the restaurants in its forestry units in Inocência and Selvíria.

At the Canoas settlement, a limestone donation to enrich the soil was also concluded.

Practical benefits The social matrix results are used in the definition of company strategy to drive positive impacts, reduce, and mitigate negative ones. Each stage of every project focused on local development is monitored and perception of its effectiveness is measured among the communities involved. Specific action plans are developed in case any need for adjustment or im- provement is identified. One of the measures undertaken by Eldorado in 2016 offered pro- fessional training in the Garcias district of Três Lagoas, meeting a community demand. In partnership with Senai, a 360-hour course on brickwork and building was offered for residents. At the end of the program, participants were given the mission of remodeling the local community center, where the main leisure and entertainment activi- ties in Garcia take place and which could be used for future training courses.
