en.Wedoany.com Reported - Ambev announced an investment of 70 million reais to build a new packaging plant in the state of Paraná, Brazil, with operations scheduled to begin in 2029. The project will construct industrial and logistics facilities covering 3,000 square meters to produce packaging for brands such as Brahma, Skol, Stella Artois, Budweiser, Spaten, and Original. Products will be supplied to all Brazilian states and exported to the company's plants in Argentina, Bolivia, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Chile.

This investment aims to enhance logistics coordination, improve inventory efficiency, and accelerate product distribution. Once the new plant is completed, Paraná will become the first Brazilian state to integrate the company's entire industrial chain, covering everything from malt cultivation to bottle manufacturing. Rodrigo Moccia, Ambev's Director of Institutional Relations, stated that Paraná is the first state in Brazil to consolidate all stages of the company's beer production chain in one location, and the state's investment attraction policies facilitated this additional investment.

According to Ambev's own data, the company's operations in Paraná over the past five years generated 6.1 billion reais in ICMS (Tax on Circulation of Goods and Services) revenue. Over the past 13 years, Ambev has invested a cumulative total of more than 2.5 billion reais in Paraná. In December 2025, the company launched a glass bottle plant in Carambeí with an investment of 1 billion reais. Currently, Ambev's operations in Paraná encompass barley cultivation, malt plants, breweries, aluminum can plants, glass factories, and distribution centers, creating 16,000 direct, indirect, and induced jobs.
