Toyota and Petrobrás invest in the construction of mills/refineries in the state, which is undergoing an optimistic economic moment in a variety of segments
Large companies announced this past week their planned investments in alcohol mills in the state of Goiás. The sector is undergoing rapid expansion, along with other industrial segments, such as the food and beverage sector. Toyota and Petrobrás, as agricultural partners, will invest in mills located in the municipalities of Itarumã and Itumbiara, Goiás; both of which are scheduled to startup activities in 2011. Including these two initiatives, investments in the region will total over US$ 400 million.
The amount to be invested will be distributed among the participants in the project. Toyota and Petrobrás will have minority stake in the announced project. The majority of the shares will be held and investments will be borne by other companies.
The expansion of the North-South Railway, which will increase an additional four thousand kilometers throughout Brazil, will now cover a number of cities in the state of Goiás, facilitating exports and transportation of sugar and alcohol production to all parts of Brazil, thus making the economy grow even faster. Mostra Fenasucro Centro - Oeste Taking into account the economic boom in the state of Goiás and hefty investments being made in mills/refineries, Multiplus Eventos created the Mostra Fenasucro Centro - Oeste, to be held October 28 through 31, at the same time as the 2008 Ffatia - Suppliers and Technology Development Trade Fair for the Food Sector.
