Fazenda Bela Vista was founded in 1981 by Paulo Enídio Crabi in the rural mining town of Eloi Menes. In 2015, Bela Vista received UTZ certification ensuring that there are good agricultural practices, sustainability, social responsibility, traceability, conservation of the ecosystem, preservation of wildlife, and fair working conditions.
