Exclusive Care Through SUS
The hospital will exclusively serve through SUS and will be built using a modular system developed by the company Brasil ao Cubo, which allows for structures to be built at up to four times the speed of a regular construction. Gerdau will supply the steel, while Ambev will cover the construction costs, estimated at R$ 10 million. The structure is permanent and, after the Covid-19 pandemic ends, will be integrated into the municipal health network.

Official Statement from AmBev
“We at Ambev Brewery, along with the City Hall of São Paulo, Gerdau, and the Albert Einstein Hospital, are joining forces to build a hospital with 100 new beds in 40 days. We will bring our experience in agile processes in project management and in covering construction costs, Gerdau will provide the steel and technical knowledge, and Einstein will support with a team of 200 healthcare professionals. We will leave a legacy for the city: this facility will be handed over to the City Hall of São Paulo to integrate into the city’s public health network. Last week, we took our first step in the fight against COVID-19, announcing the production and donation of 500 thousand units of hand sanitizer to hospitals. Now, we are taking an even bigger step. We are going beyond labels!” stated Ricardo Dias – the Vice President of Marketing at AmBev on his LinkedIn profile.
