Yerba mate: a natural heritage that moves markets
Long before it became known around the world, Ilex paraguariensis, better known as yerba mate, was already part of everyday life for the peoples of Brazil. Over time, it has also become a traditional plant in some South American regions — such as Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay — conquering space with its intense flavor and its culturally rooted way of bringing people together around different modes of consumption.
In Brazil, yerba mate is present at different times. In shared chimarrão, in tereré to refresh, and in yerba mate, a staple of daily life. More than a custom, it moves markets and conquers new spaces inside and outside the country.
And our history with yerba mate also has deep roots. Since the 1930s, we have been working with its extracts—a milestone that began when our founders were challenged by the National Mate Institute to produce caffeine from the plant during World War II. At that time, over a ton of natural caffeine was produced each month to supply pharmaceutical industries in Brazil and across South America. A true example of pioneering spirit and vision of the future.
Based on all this trajectory, tradition and potential, we created MateActive: a portfolio of standardized extracts that maintain the authenticity of yerba mate and take its essence to new possibilities.
