About rePLANET

rePLANET is a purpose-driven company restoring and protecting ecosystems at scale by unlocking
private sector finance. Founded in 2021, we have rapidly become one of the most trusted and
innovative project developers in the fast-growing nature-based solutions sector.

Our mission is to restore and conserve vital ecosystems by designing and managing
landscape-scale projects that generate verified carbon and biodiversity credits. Central to our
approach is a commitment to equity and inclusion: at least 60% of project revenues are
reinvested directly into local communities and stakeholders, ensuring ecological recovery
delivers lasting benefits for both people and planet.

Backed by significant equity investment, rePLANET is scaling a diverse global portfolio,
including:

• Tropical forest restoration and the creation of wildlife corridors on degraded cattle pastures
  using regenerative practices.
• Mangrove recovery, transforming abandoned or underutilised shrimp ponds while integrating
  sustainable aquaculture.
• Agroforestry innovation, repurposing stranded timber plantations and replacing end-of-life
  crops, with set-asides to restore native habitats and biodiversity corridors.
• Biodiversity led projects are projects where carbon funding alone is insufficient to fund the
  project and an additional biodiversity credit income stream is needed

With projects underway in Indonesia, Costa Rica, Panama, Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina;
rePLANET is at the forefront of delivering scalable, high-integrity nature restoration
solutions. Our expertise in project development and our technically-robust, science-driven
methodologies are recognised globally, positioning us as a leading actor in this critical and
rapidly evolving sector.
