Our brand name, ALVAZ, bring together two portuguese powerful words: ALVO + VIVAZ, meaning TARGET + LIVE. As a central element, the word TARGET symbolizes our focus on work and determination on generating crucial crop information. The word LIVE is then added to ensure fluidity and pass by the message of vigor and life, concepts linked to agriculture.
Alvaz branding and visual communication reflect these same premises. Our logo is designed to symbolize a target and the colors, green and blue, were choosen to link to the concept of nature, its forces and the inexhaustible resources of agriculture.
In a short period of time, we have attained important achievements through knowledge and technological innovation. We are confident and fully adherent to our values in pursuit of our corporate vision.
Our corporate structure is built by agronomists with extensive technical and business experience - which includes genetic improvement, seeds, technologies and crop protection products development.
