IBT Group, ALFRIDOMSA, and Parque del Prado carry out a reforestation campaign

Constanza, Dominican Republic.- The companies Alfridomsa, IBT Group, and Parque del Prado carried out a reforestation campaign in the La Siberia area of Valle Nuevo as part of their environmental commitment to preserve and restore areas affected by natural risks or human activities, thus contributing to a healthier and more sustainable environment for all.

For the past 12 years, each of the companies has been making continuous efforts in favor of the environment by minimizing the environmental footprint of their operations to contribute to preservation.

“We are convinced of the importance of preserving and recovering these natural spaces through tree planting, preserving the characteristics of the environment and improving living and water possibilities,” said Gina Victoriano, executive director of the companies.

This initiative supports the companies’ sustainability policy actions to strengthen their value chain, providing knowledge and education spaces to their employees on environmental challenges and sustainable development.

“We have planted 68 thousand trees in various areas to improve environmental conditions, prevent, minimize, and control impacts on the environment. In each of our operations, we aim for continuous improvement by fostering environmental values and respect for natural resources among our employees,” highlighted Victoriano.

Currently, Alfridomsa and Parque del Prado are in the process of certification under the ISO 14001 Environmental Management standard to further reaffirm the commitment of top management and all their personnel to environmental protection.

In this activity, carried out in La Siberia, Valle Nuevo, dozens of employees from different companies joined forces to plant 3,000 trees alongside other local institutions, including the Ministry of Environment, the Dominican Republic Army, and the Colonel Marún J. Tactuck Fire Department.

The campaign, in which 3,000 Pinus occidentalis trees (native pine or Hispaniola pine) were planted, helps prevent soil erosion, reduces CO2 levels in the air, protects watersheds, and provides a vital habitat for many plant and animal species, promoting biodiversity and ecological balance.
