The Brazilian National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES) announced this Wednesday (20) that it has approved financing of R$ 47.5 million for C.Vale Cooperativa Agroindustrial to invest in its units in Paraná and Mato Grosso. The resources are equivalent to 75% of the total investment of R$ 63.2 million that the cooperative intends to make and will come from the Program for Construction and Expansion of Warehouses (PCA) and the Cooperative Development Program for Adding Value to Agricultural Production (Prodecoop), both within the scope of the 2025/2026 Harvest Plan. Part of the resources will be used to expand the cooperative's storage capacity, implementing two new grain receiving units in the municipality of Toledo, in Paraná. Each grain receiving unit will have a total area of 2,400 m² and an initial storage capacity of 800,000 tons, with provision for future expansion. Also in western Paraná, the poultry slaughterhouse in the city of Palotina will undergo renovations with the acquisition of new conveyor belts and dosing silos. Investments in the Mato Grosso units aim to bring them into compliance with health and safety at work standards.
