Vidroporto, with its subsidiary Indústria Vidreira do Nordeste, is a Brazilian producer of glass containers.
It also operates two plants located in Porto Ferreira, São Paulo state, southeast region, and Estância, Sergipe state, northeast region, from where it supplies containers to Brazilian brands in segments such as beer, spirits and soft drinks.
In the full year 2023, Vidroporto expects sales of approximately R$850 million and EBITDA of approximately R$300 million.
The Porto Ferreira plant received an expansionary investment this year.
