Focusing on the growth of e-commerce and agribusiness in the Northeast, Klabin, a paper and pulp producer, announced that it will invest R$ 188 million to expand its factory in the metropolitan region of Fortaleza, in Horizonte. The increase in the unit’s capacity will require hiring 200 new employees by next year.

Currently, the factory operates with a workforce of 50 employees. The selection process for the units will begin in the second half of this year, but Klabin will provide more information on the matter.

According to Douglas Dalmasi, director of the packaging business, the company’s goal is for all labor to be composed of professionals from Fortaleza. However, there may be hiring of professionals from other regions to ensure that factory workers are trained.

Details about the hiring for Klabin’s factory were disclosed at a press conference at the unit itself this Friday (18). Following the investment, the unit in Fortaleza will expand its production of corrugated paper packaging fivefold, increasing from 20,000 to 100,000 tons annually. The company was inaugurated two years ago, with an initial investment of 50 million.

According to Douglas, Fortaleza has been part of Klabin’s strategic planning for a long time, as it is a region that is developing much faster than the rest of Brazil, significantly boosting the fruit sector and being highly competitive. In addition to e-commerce, which will generate a large number of job opportunities, Klabin seeks to meet the demand in the fruit cultivation market and in the industry of Fortaleza.

Ceará Has Incentive Policies for Companies

According to Douglas, the fruit sector has specific requirements regarding packaging, and Klabin can meet them. Furthermore, Klabin is capable of keeping pace with this growth and driving innovation, as it is a company that ensures quality from the forest base to the packaging. Therefore, the company uses papers sourced directly from the forest that can come into contact with food, preserving its condition throughout the logistics, until export.

According to Maia Júnior, Secretary of Economic Development and Labor of the State of Ceará, having a business environment policy and tax incentives aims to attract companies and generate job opportunities for professionals in the region.

The State of Ceará is developing a framework to strengthen its economic chains and is also investing in renewable energy sources, attracting investments in green hydrogen. The event also included the presence of Cristiano Teixeira, General Director of Klabin, Gabriella Michelucci, Director of Corrugated Cardboard, Wolff Klabin, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the company, Nezinho Farias, Mayor of Horizonte, and other state and municipal secretaries.
