“The Prodec is an important economic tool to boost the company’s investments in Santa Catarina. By offering tax incentives, such as the deferral of ICMS, the Program stimulates the expansion of industrial enterprises, generating jobs and income,” said Marcelo Martins, Director of Institutional and Government Relations at Piracanjuba.

In 2025, Piracanjuba will celebrate 70 years, reaching a portfolio with over 200 items and projecting a revenue of up to R$ 12 billion in the year.

The company has manufacturing plants in Bela Vista de Goiás (GO), Governador Valadares (MG), Maravilha (SC), Nossa Senhora da Glória (SE), Sulina (PR), Araraquara (SP), Três Rios (RJ), and Carazinho (RS).
