The company began harvesting at the farm in September, resuming production in the state where it has more than 4,100ha of production. It said the goal is to export more than 1,300 containers in the coming years, consolidating the company’s growth in the international market.

“The goal for the 2025/26 harvest is to continuously strengthen the presence of our Rei brand in major international markets, ensuring supply consistency and building long-term partnerships,” the company said.

Itaueira is currently exporting to North America, Europe, and the Middle East. The new operation in Ceará enhances the company’s logistics network, improving access to strategic ports and speeding up transportation to international destinations.

The company’s international sales manager, Aryan Schut, commented: “The new farm in Morada Nova gives us scale and regularity, allowing us to serve our global clients more efficiently. The 24 containers shipped during the first month of operation reflect the strength of this project”.

Itaueira said it continuously invests in agricultural innovation, sustainable practices, and advanced logistics to ensure its products reach consumers with “freshness and excellence”.

“We believe that the combination of tradition, technology, and environmental responsibility is key to building solid and trustworthy growth,” the company said.
