Minuano invests R$74M to modernize Lajeado poultry plant, +15% capacity

Minuano Food Company has started a R$74 million modernization and automation project at its Lajeado poultry slaughterhouse in Rio Grande do Sul, aiming to boost production capacity by ~15% by 2027. The investment is part of the company's strategic plan launched in 2025, ahead of its 80th anniversary in 2026. This is a routine corporate capital expenditure with no immediate market-moving implications, though it signals confidence in poultry demand.
