The Multinational Aryzta Invested R$ 400 Million to Build a New Bread Factory in Minas Gerais

This year, Minas Gerais will receive Aryzta’s largest factory in the country, a Swiss multinational that produces bread for retail and food service and promises to create thousands of jobs in the region. An investment of approximately R$ 400 million will be applied in the production line that will be inaugurated in Pouso Alegre, in southern Minas Gerais, and it will be the fifth largest factory of the multinational in the 19 countries where it operates.

Minas Gerais Strengthens Job Creation and Income

According to Fernando Passalio, Secretary of State for Economic Development, another major investment for the state is being announced. The excellent business environment in Minas Gerais strengthens job creation and income.

He states that Minas Gerais is the best place to invest and that the state has accumulated enormous numbers. Since 2019, R$ 122 billion has been added in new businesses or expansions in the state.

Aryzta’s Factory Promises Thousands of Jobs

The company expects to generate around 300 direct jobs and more than a thousand indirect jobs at the factory. The investment will have the capacity to produce up to 75,000 loaves of bread per hour, with the factory expected to begin operations by November of this year.

According to Viktor Nobre, a partner at BTS Properties, developing a factory for a multinational requires special dedication, involving teams and suppliers from various countries.

Viktor also states that it is necessary to understand processes, demands, priorities, and find the best solutions. According to Nobre, the company has the support of the Government of the State of Minas Gerais and the City Hall of Pouso Alegre.

Aryzta’s Market Expansion

Aryzta ranks as the third-largest bakery industry in the world and distributes hamburger buns used by major fast food companies, such as the pies sold by McDonald’s and the Australian bread from the Outback restaurant. And it doesn’t stop there; the company also produces artisanal breads, cookies, muffins, croissants, and brownies.

The multinational’s new factory, which promises to create numerous job opportunities, began construction in April of last year and occupies an area of 18,713.63 m². The new unit will be the first in the baking sector to have continuous freezing technology, meaning that the breads will be produced automatically, without the need for manual labor, ensuring that the product is more standardized.
