The Value Global Group Project Promises to Transform Sertão Central with Job Creation and Logistics Development!

In the heart of Sertão Central in Ceará, the town of Quixeramobim is now preparing to host a significant project. The Brazilian multinational Value Global Group will invest R$ 650 million in the construction of a dry port that, in addition to being innovative, will be a multimodal terminal aimed at revolutionizing local logistics. Thus, the mining, agribusiness, and efficient footwear sectors, among others, will have easier access to a transportation network. With its strategic location near the Transnordestina Railway, the terminal will connect the interior to the ports of Pecém and Fortaleza, unprecedented logistical integration and accessibility, according to the Diário do Nordeste website.

The company, present in countries such as Brazil, the United States, Germany, and China, declared that this investment will be entirely self-financed. In other words, without the need for public or bank financing, Value Global Group strengthens its presence and commitment to the economic development of Sertão Central, positioning it as a new and important player in Brazilian foreign trade.

Strategy and Reasons for Choosing Quixeramobim

The choice of Quixeramobim to host the dry port involves a careful logistical analysis process. During the export of iron ore from Piauí through the Port of Pecém, the Value Global Group encountered challenges in rail transport. In response, the company met with representatives from Transnordestina Logística (FTL) and the Port of Pecém. After this analysis, the group chose Quixeramobim, considering economic advantages and the strategic positioning, among other cities, such as Missão Velha and Iguatu.

Thus, in September 2024, Value Global formalized the creation of Value Port Terminais Multimodais Ltda., a company that will take over the terminal’s operation. With the environmental licensing underway and topographic analyses initiated, the forecast is for the port to begin operations in conjunction with the Transnordestina Railway in the first half of 2026.

Economic Impact and Benefits of the Dry Port

The dry port will not only be a transportation structure, it will benefit various sectors of the economy, such as agribusiness, mining, the footwear sector, and dairy industries. According to Ricardo Henrique Ferro Azevedo, CEO of Value Global Group, the goal is to provide modern and multimodal infrastructure, connecting Sertão Central to national and international markets with speed and efficiency.

The project results from partnerships between the state government and municipal leaders, which ensure that a new structure directly benefits the region’s development. The arrival of the Transnordestina Railway in Quixeramobim will also be positive for the north and south of Ceará, promising logistical advantages. Scheduled for completion in 2027, the railway is expected to strengthen trade and expand transport options for products from the state.

Job Creation and Incentive for Foreign Trade

The dry port of Value Global Group not only brings state-of-the-art infrastructure, it represents, above all, a significant opportunity for the local economy. The construction of the multimodal terminal will benefit the creation of direct and indirect jobs. Additionally, it will positively impact the entire production chain, from rural producers to industries and distribution centers, generating income and stimulating foreign trade in the Northeast.

According to CEO Ricardo Azevedo, the project aligns with the group’s mission to stimulate Brazil’s economic growth. Thus, the operation of the dry port is expected to attract new businesses to the region, enhancing the competitiveness of Brazilian products in the global market.
