Learn More About the Investment of Over R$ 500 Million in New Factories That Will Generate 167 Direct Jobs. Meet the Companies.

The city of Frutal, strategically located in the Triângulo Mineiro, is preparing for a significant leap in its local economy. 

In a highly publicized announcement, Governor Romeu Zema, representing the Government of Minas Gerais, confirmed last Friday, August 1, 2025, the approval of an investment of over R$ 500 million in a brewery and aluminum packaging factory

This massive financial injection, coming from Cervejaria Cidade Imperial and Beverage Pack Company, not only consolidates the municipality as a promising industrial hub but also promises an economic revitalization and the creation of hundreds of new job openings for the local population. 

The news is a milestone for the city and the region, signaling a future of growth and development.

The Brewery Cidade Imperial Expands and Diversifies Its Portfolio

One of the main players in this large project is Cervejaria Cidade Imperial, which will make Frutal its second operational unit in the country. 

The company, already recognized in the market, will make a R$ 130 million investment in expanding the portfolio of the Cervejaria Cidade Imperial unit, diversifying its production beyond traditional beverages. 

In addition to beer, the company already operates in the production of energy drinks, liqueurs, mineral water, and even coffee powder, demonstrating a robust and adaptable market strategy.

The installation of the new brewery factory in Frutal is a strategic step for the company and a great opportunity for the city. 

The project foresees the generation of 67 direct jobs, with the hiring of professionals to work in production, logistics, administration, and quality. 

These new jobs will inject renewed energy into the local economy, creating opportunities for skilled labor and boosting consumption.

Packaging Factory Brings Millions and Creates Industrial Synergy

The second and even larger financial injection comes from Beverage Pack Company

The company, which plays a crucial role in the supply chain, will invest an impressive R$ 465 million in the city. 

The presence of an aluminum packaging factory is extremely important for the local industrial ecosystem, creating direct synergy with the brewery and other beverage industries that may establish themselves in the region.

With its new operation, Beverage Pack Company is expected to generate 100 job vacancies in the city, offering opportunities in technical, operational, and engineering areas. 

The total investment from both companies, amounting to exactly R$ 595 million, demonstrates unprecedented confidence in the potential of Frutal and the state of Minas Gerais. 

The impact of generating 167 direct jobs is even greater when considering the indirect jobs that will be created in the service, commerce, and transportation sectors that will develop around the new factories.

The Role of the State and the Importance of a Solid Business Environment

The official announcement by Governor Romeu Zema reinforces the importance of the partnership between public power and private initiative. 

In his speech, the company’s CEO, Jean Rodrigo Pereira, emphasized the government’s fundamental role. “I wanted to highlight the role of the State that has provided us with this environment of safety and development capacity. We also believe that the business environment is the driving force behind economic and social development,” he said.

The CEO’s statement highlights that the investment is not just a matter of capital but the result of a favorable business climate, with legal security and incentives that make the state attractive to large companies. 

The economic and social development driven by these investments promises to raise the standard of living for the population of Frutal and consolidate the region as one of the main industrial hubs in Minas Gerais.
