Since 1991, Niagro, a subsidiary of the Japanese group Nichirei Corporation, has been transforming acerola production in northeastern Brazil. Located in Petrolina, in the heart of the São Francisco Valley, the company was a pioneer in the production and export of acerola products in the region, and is recognized for its high standards of quality and productivity, meeting the demands and requirements of an increasingly competitive global market.
The city of Petrolina was strategically chosen for its location in the heart of the São Francisco Valley, a region named after the São Francisco River, one of the largest in Brazil. With a semi-arid tropical climate and fertile soils, it offers ideal conditions for growing acerola. Backed by a dedicated team, we consistently exceed market expectations and have established ourselves as leaders in the sector.
With over 30 years of experience and a solid partnership with over 300 producers, we invest in technology to develop new acerola varieties rich in vitamin C and implement improvements in the field, aiming to increase acerola productivity and meet the demands of our puree, concentrate and powder lines. Everything is planned and executed responsibly, focusing on the growing demand for natural, healthy and sustainable products.
Our Sustainability Committee monitors and implements actions to ensure that our practices benefit the environment, our employees and the community, ensuring high-quality products and contributing to a more balanced future.
We are committed to transparency and excellence, ensuring that our products meet rigorous food and nutraceutical quality standards. Traceability is a priority, ensuring that everything complies with customer specifications.
