Sooro Renner Invests Millions in New Factory in Paraná, Expanding Lactose Production and Creating Thousands of Jobs.
Sooro Renner, a company specialized in the production of whey protein derivatives, announced the construction of a new industrial complex in Francisco Beltrão, Paraná. The investment will be R$ 680 million and aims to expand the production of lactose, whey protein, and butter. The new factory will create 350 direct jobs and 1,650 indirect ones, contributing to the growth of the dairy sector in the state.
Billion-Dollar Investment in New Factory Strengthens National Lactose Production
The new factory will have the capacity to produce 40 million tons annually of Lactose Infant Formula, a product used in infant nutrition.
Additionally, the industrial plant will produce 12 thousand tons of Whey Protein, serving the sports nutrition market, and 6 thousand tons of butter.

Cosulati’s plant gains new life with a million-dollar investment and a plan to process up to 550,000 liters of milk per day.
With this expansion, the company intends to reduce Brazil’s dependence on imported lactose and strengthen its presence in the food sector.
The facility will follow strict quality standards, becoming one of the most modern in Latin America.
The expansion will also enable greater logistical efficiency and expand Sooro Renner’s international market presence.
Paraná Stands Out in Attracting New Investments
The choice of Francisco Beltrão for the new factory was strategic, as the city is located between the company’s other units and nearby suppliers of raw materials.
The investment will also accompany improvements in the region’s infrastructure, including the duplication of highways that facilitate the transportation of products.
“Paraná offers detailed conditions for the dairy sector, both due to local milk production and logistical incentives. The new unit reinforces our commitment to expand and modernize the national dairy industry,” said the CEO of Sooro Renner Nutrição, Eduardo Serra Ferreira.
The new industrial complex is part of a larger plan by the company, which already invested R$ 120 million in the Marechal Cândido Rondon unit in 2021.
With the new factory, the company’s transportation in Paraná is expected to exceed R$ 1 billion by 2027.
Expansion of Dairy Industry Creates Jobs in New Factory
The construction of the new factory is part of a broader movement of growth in the dairy sector in Paraná.
In addition to Sooro Renner, other companies are also investing in the region. The Piracanjuba Group, for example, secured R$ 499 million in funding for the construction of two factories in the southwest of the state.
For the government of Paraná, the arrival of new investments and the creation of jobs strengthen the economy and stimulate family agriculture.
“The state is establishing itself as one of the main hubs of the dairy industry in Brazil,” said Governor Ratinho Junior (PSD).
