Who we are

We are the São Salvador Alimentos SA group, one of the leading food industries in Brazil, operating in all stages of the poultry production chain, from the production of fertile eggs to the distribution of fresh and processed products in Brazil and abroad. Our industrial park is comprised of two production complexes located in the cities of Itaberaí and Nova Veneza, in the state of Goiás, which gives us a daily slaughter capacity of approximately 520,000 birds.

Our industry began operations in 1991, but its history dates back to 1973, when one of the founders, Carlos Vieira, built the first broiler chicken farms in Itaberaí. In over 30 years of industrial activity, we have gradually expanded our structure, which, in addition to the two processing plants, includes feed factories, hatcheries, breeding farms for rearing and producing fertile eggs, and grain storage units.

These facilities allow us to easily meet all the needs of each stage of our production process, providing more than 500,000 birds for slaughter per day and offering a diversified portfolio of one hundred products. We have around 30,000 active customers per month in twenty Brazilian states, in addition to the Federal District, and we have already exported to 80 countries throughout Africa, Central America, Asia, Europe and Oceania. Our work reaches customers’ tables under the SuperFrango and Boua brands.

SuperFrango is our specialist line of chicken protein, available in the frozen, chilled, processed and breaded segments. It is the brand for traditional and special chicken cuts, stuffed sausages and breaded products such as filet mignon and steak, to name a few. Boua focuses on diversifying our portfolio, offering frozen French fries, dairy products, fish, processed meats, among others.
We work with the strictest quality standards to ensure that our customers receive safe, healthy and affordable products. This is only possible because we have an advanced production process and rely on the excellence of our more than 8,000 direct and outsourced employees.

We established our Board of Directors, created the financial department and made our first foray into the capital markets by issuing Agribusiness Receivables Certificates (CRA). In order to carry out this operation, we underwent a risk classification process by Standard & Poor’s that resulted in an AA+ Brazil rating, which demonstrates our total commitment to the highest standards of governance and good financial practices in the market.

We are, therefore, a privately held corporation fully prepared to enter a new world, that of publicly traded companies. We understand that this is the path that will allow us to explore our full growth potential, in a sustainable manner, with a focus on the expansion and longevity of our Company and our business.
