About Optima ESG
Corporate donation with measurable social impact
Optima ESG is a Brazilian platform that organizes the connection between companies, social organizations and communities, so that surplus stops being an operating loss and becomes documented social impact and a tax benefit, with governance from start to finish.
We are a startup founded by women, combining technology and social impact. For companies taxed under Lucro Real (Brazil’s actual-profit regime), donated surplus can reduce the corporate income tax base (Law 9,249/1995), within the legal limit and subject to review by the company’s accountant. What used to be a loss supports a tax benefit, an ESG result and a dignified destination for the people who receive it.

Tax efficiency, governance and traceability
We work with companies across the food chain, from agriculture to logistics and wholesale, to organize donation flows with less operational friction, from listing the surplus to confirming receipt.
The model combines digital coordination, prioritization by need and continuous follow-up. Companies get visibility of their impact; non-profits get more predictability.

List their surplus and follow the results.
Non-profits
Set their priorities and receive with traceability.
Ecosystem
