B Corp-certified cosmetics company scaling direct sales across Latin America
Natura is a publicly traded Brazilian cosmetics manufacturer operating a 2-million-strong direct-sales network across 11 countries, now focused on supply chain optimization and market expansion in Latin America. The tech stack reveals a data-first infrastructure (Spark, Airflow, Presto, Athena, SAP, Tableau) built on AWS, paired with a sales-heavy hiring mix (76 of 149 open roles) — signaling aggressive direct-sales channel scaling and internal process consolidation to support growth. Active pain points around supply-chain risk, procurement simplification, and KPI visibility suggest ongoing ERP and data-pipeline maturation.
Notable leadership hires: Tech Lead, Head Marketing, Finance Head, Chief Financial Officer

The company holds B Corp certification (first-wave recipient in 2014, recertified in 2020) and emphasizes sustainability, vegan formulations, and ethical sourcing tied to Amazon biodiversity. Distribution extends into Argentina, Brazil, Canada, El Salvador, Peru, Colombia, Chile, and Ecuador, with supply-chain, logistics, and digital infrastructure increasingly critical to operational scale.
