Macaé 2030 Project seeks to bring new investments to the city, reducing dependence on oil

The initiative to look for the fertilizer factory is part of the Macaé 2030 project, which seeks to diversify the local economy, reducing dependence on the oil sector and expanding business opportunities in other segments. In this sense, the objective is to make the city more attractive to investors, strengthening job creation and stimulating economic growth.

The city of Macaé is already known for its tradition in the oil industry, with large companies in the sector installed in the region. However, the oil crisis of recent years affects the local economy, leading to the need to seek new business opportunities.

The diversification of the economy is essential to ensure the sustainability of the municipality, reducing vulnerability to oil cycles and expanding employment and income opportunities for the population.

In addition, the installation of new fertilizer factories can contribute to the strengthening of agriculture in the region, generating positive impacts throughout the production chain. The production of fertilizers is essential for agriculture, being responsible for ensuring the quality and productivity of crops.

There will be more than 7 direct and indirect jobs that will benefit the entire population of the region

According to estimates by the Municipality of Macaé, the installation of new fertilizer factories could generate around 7.500 direct and indirect jobs in the city, contributing to reducing unemployment and increasing the population's income.

To make the project viable, the City Hall has maintained contact with companies in the fertilizer sector, presenting Macaé's competitive advantages. However, the city has a strategic location, close to important consumer centers, and a quality logistics infrastructure, including ports, airports and highways.

In addition, the city invests in professional training, through partnerships with universities and technical education institutions, guaranteeing qualified labor for companies that settle in the region.

Macaé City Hall guarantees that the installation of new factories is favored by the reduction of bureaucracy in processes

O Mayor of Macaé, Welberth Rezende, highlighted the importance of investing in the installation of new fertilizer factories in the region. According to him, the municipality offers several advantages for the installation of undertakings, such as reducing the bureaucracy of licensing processes. In addition, it offers adequate infrastructure, legal security, favorable tax conditions and efficient logistics for the transport of raw materials and inputs.

Rezende also pointed out that the installation of a fertilizer production center would be a unique opportunity for Macaé. After all, it would take advantage of the investments already made in the infrastructure for operating natural gas in the city. Furthermore, he pointed out that the fertilizer sector is strategic for the country and can boost the economic development of Macaé and the entire region.

The initiative has the potential to transform Macaé's economy, expanding business opportunities in a strategic sector for the country. However, the production of fertilizers is essential to ensure the food security of the population and to strengthen agriculture.
