SAO PAUL, Nov. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Andre Albuquerque, a young entrepreneur and Forbes Under 30 with the success story of Suplax, a supplement and nutraceutical industry, leads a new company, Acquion Food Tech, which starts operations this month.
The investment can reach up to R$250 million in the next 48 months, applied with the aim of progressively increasing production capacity, new products and plants throughout the world.
Acquion is a Brazilian company and has an ambitious plan to occupy a relevant position among world leaders in 5 years.
The initial production capacity is 3,000 tons per year and it is planned to reach 15,000 tons per year in the first 2 years, with the goal of reaching 30,000 tons of production capacity in 5 years. Located in Minas Gerais, an important agribusiness hub with easy logistical access, it will use the brands: CPURE (collagen) and GPURE (gelatin).
The time is right: even with the aggressive growth of the international market for collagen-based foods in the last 3 years, there are still few suppliers in the world and the products available on the market offer a quality below what the consumer deserves. .
Quality is Acquion's proposition: the company will deliver the collagen base with 98% protein and 99% purity: levels higher than those practiced by other industries. This is only possible thanks to the innovative and exclusive production process that was developed by the company and that no other player on the market has.
"We are taking the segment to another level, based on the premise of quality at an affordable price for the market and the end customer. It is the purest collagen on the market, produced in the leanest and most efficient process with the best food technology in the sector. Albuquerque says.
Partners who have joined:
Rudye Santos: Chemist and executive who has been working for more than 20 years in industries specializing in collagen and other food ingredients, such as the market leader Rousselot. Santos is known as the "Pope of Collagen" because of his experience and products developed with levels of quality never seen before.
Completing the partnership, Guilherme Alves, who was Bluefit's CFO for 6 years and worked for Leste Group, will lead the financial management of the company.
