The National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES) is financing R$ 236 million for the construction of a new food factory in the municipality of Horizonte, in the Metropolitan Region of Fortaleza, Ceará. This project by J.Macêdo promises to strengthen food production in the region and generate many jobs.
The new factory by J.Macêdo will produce long, short, and ‘ninho’ type pasta, as well as cake mixes. With its own distribution center, the factory will serve the North and Northeast regions, facilitating access to products.
The venture will have a recycling shed, contributing to sustainability. This will be J.Macêdo’s second industrial unit in Ceará, complementing the wheat mill that the group already operates in Fortaleza.
Investment and Infrastructure by BNDES
BNDES approved investments of R$ 125.8 million for civil works, such as earthworks, paving, sidewalks, construction of offices, gates, warehouses, and engine houses. In addition, R$ 110 million will be allocated to the acquisition of modern equipment and machines that take up less space, use less raw material, and consume less energy and water. These investments will be made through Finame Direto.

Impact on the Economy and Job Creation
According to Aloizio Mercadante, president of BNDES, “In addition to supporting a greenfield project, meaning a completely new investment that expands production capacity and generates new jobs, the financing also strongly impacts the production chain, as a significant amount of resources will go towards the acquisition of national machinery, encouraging the production of Brazilian capital goods.”
During the factory’s implementation phase, 150 direct jobs will be created. After completion, this number could reach 200. The production chain will be strongly impacted, with the purchase of national machinery, encouraging the Brazilian industry.
The new food factory by J.Macêdo in Horizonte, financed by BNDES, will not only increase food production in Ceará but also boost the local and national economy, generating over 300 direct and indirect jobs. This is a significant step for the economic and social development of the region, benefiting the entire production chain.
