The construction of the new factory was due to the significant increase in demand during the pandemic, which created a “global rush for cans,” forcing many people to stay at home and consequently opt for canned beverage consumption, causing Ambev to face tighter margins, as returnable bottles are more commonly used by bars and restaurants.

With an investment of over R$ 700 million, Ambev’s new unit was built on an area of 45 thousand square meters, has two production lines—one for cans and one for lids—which will allow Brazil’s largest brewery to deliver a beverage produced, from the recipe to the packaging, 100% in Minas Gerais.
