About the New Factory to Be Built in Minas Gerais
The new factory will be established in the city of Curvelo, in the Central region of Minas Gerais. Expected to be operational in May 2023, the new investment will generate approximately 1,000 jobs, both direct and indirect, positively impacting the entire productive chain and creating business opportunities in various service sectors in the region.
The project will be implemented in two phases over four years. The goal is to reach a production capacity of 680,000 tons per year. The Curvelo factory itself will handle the storage and processing of raw materials for animal feed (corn, soybeans, sorghum, and citrus pulp, for example), which will enhance the commercialization of these items in the State, benefiting rural producers.

Cristália, a 100% national pharmaceutical, pharmaceutical-chemical, and biotechnology laboratory, has just announced the acquisition of another industrial plant to expand the capacity for producing medications. The business group purchased a property where the Santanense textile factory used to operate in Montes Claros, Minas Gerais. The expected investment in the site is approximately R$ 300 million, and around 700 new jobs could be created.
The purchased property has around 30,000 square meters of built area, on a plot of 156,000 square meters, and it will undergo modifications to meet pharmaceutical industry standards. Both the renovation and the acquisition of equipment take time, and the expectation is that the factory will start operating in 2023.
This investment complements the additional R$ 100 million being invested by the company in Pouso Alegre, in Southern Minas, for a factory of injectable medications (ampoules and vials), already in operation. The city of Montes Claros was chosen for the factory because it offers tax incentives for industrial installations and the property already has good infrastructure, speeding up the necessary construction and adaptations for production initiation. The region also has qualified labor, as approximately 700 direct jobs will be created over the next five years.
