What Toroto does
Toroto is a Mexico-based nature-based solutions company founded in 2019 that designs, develops, and operates ecosystem restoration projects delivering carbon capture and water infiltration outcomes for large enterprise clients. The company co-creates projects with rural ejido communities across 13 territorial locations in Mexico, combining on-the-ground implementation—restoration activities, soil and water conservation structures, and biodiversity monitoring—with a proprietary digital monitoring platform called Toroto Track that integrates satellite imagery, IoT sensors, LiDAR-based geospatial analysis, SWAT hydrological modeling, and field data for real-time project reporting.
Toroto's product portfolio centers on two service lines: Carbon Service, which generates carbon removal credits through forest and ecosystem restoration, and Water Service, which restores hydrological cycles, improves infiltration, and recharges aquifers using nature-based interventions validated by the Volumetric Water Benefit Accounting methodology. Notable flagship engagements include a contract with Microsoft for 234,000 carbon removal credits from the Conhuás tropical rainforest project in Calakmul, and water stewardship initiatives with Nestlé, Coca-Cola, and AB InBev. The company also partners with ClimeCo, Respira, and Climate Seed for environmental commodity distribution, and with GIZ for development-funded climate action.
Toroto's business model is primarily project-based enterprise sales, generating revenue through sale of carbon removal credits and volumetric water benefit credits to corporate buyers, supplemented by customized managed-service project engagements. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; contracts are negotiated individually with enterprise clients. Land-owner communities are the primary financial beneficiaries of credit sale proceeds, while Toroto captures value through project development, implementation, monitoring, and intermediation across the value chain. Cumulative impact includes 255,000 hectares managed, 1.1 million tonnes of CO2 sequestered, and 4 million cubic meters of water infiltration capacity installed across five basins.

Toroto competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Pachama: Pachama is a digital marketplace and project developer for nature-based carbon credits, using satellite data and ML to verify forest carbon projects. Directly comparable to Toroto as both sell high-integrity nature-based carbon credits to enterprise buyers, with Pachama adding a marketplace layer versus Toroto's project-execution model.
- South Pole: South Pole develops and sells nature-based carbon credits, renewable energy credits, and carbon advisory services globally. Comparable to Toroto as both originate and monetize nature-based carbon projects for corporate buyers, though South Pole operates at much larger scale and across many more geographies.
- re.green: re.green is a Brazilian reforestation company developing large-scale native forest restoration projects for carbon credit generation. Directly comparable to Toroto's tropical restoration work — both operate in Latin America with native species restoration, community engagement, and corporate offtake agreements for carbon credits.
- Mombak: Mombak reforests degraded Amazon land in Brazil and generates high-quality carbon removal credits sold to enterprise buyers. Closely comparable to Toroto's tropical forest restoration model — both produce nature-based removal credits with strong MRV, premium pricing, and corporate procurement focus.
- Terra Global Capital: Terra Global Capital invests in and develops nature-based climate solutions including forest carbon, agriculture, and land restoration projects globally. Comparable to Toroto as both develop and finance nature-based carbon projects with community involvement and sell credits to corporate and institutional buyers.
- Mast Reforestation: Mast Reforestation is a US-based reforestation company that develops and finances forest restoration projects generating carbon removal credits for corporate buyers. Comparable to Toroto in developing nature-based removal credits at scale, though Mast is US-focused and uses post-wildfire restoration as a primary land source.
Broad incumbents
- Indigo Ag: Indigo Ag operates a large agriculture carbon program and broader digital ag platform, generating agricultural carbon credits at scale. Comparable to Toroto's nature-based carbon work in methodology and buyer base, though Indigo's portfolio is broader (ag tech, biologicals, carbon) and US-centric versus Toroto's Mexican community-led model.
Emerging players
- Carboneers (formerly part of Climate Neutral Group): Carboneers is a smaller European nature-based solutions developer focused on reforestation and carbon removal projects. Partially comparable to Toroto as both develop nature-based removal credits for corporate buyers, but Carboneers operates at smaller scale and in different geographies (Europe/LATAM).
- Sylvera: Sylvera provides independent ratings and analytics for carbon credits, assessing project quality using satellite data and ML. Comparable to Toroto's Toroto Track platform on the monitoring/MRV layer, though Sylvera is a ratings and data business rather than a project developer — making it more adjacent than directly competitive.
Others
- ClimeCo: ClimeCo is an environmental commodities and solutions firm that develops, trades, and retires carbon credits. Already a partner/distributor of Toroto, ClimeCo sits adjacent in the value chain as a credit intermediary and project developer — comparable on the carbon market side though ClimeCo's role is more broker/aggregator versus Toroto's project execution.
