Basic food basket sector seeks recovery from the impacts of drought in Amazonas

Production

After delays in the arrival of Christmas products, food companies remain optimistic

Manaus (AM) – In Manaus, the company Big Cesta, specialized in the production of basic and end-of-year baskets, has many reasons to celebrate. After facing a lack of inputs in recent months due to the extreme drought in Amazonas, the company remains fully operational and mainly focused on selling personalized baskets for this season.

According to Big Cesta’s commercial director, Greice Neves, the current scenario significantly delayed the assembly of the baskets.

“We were directly impacted. It was very difficult. Because some products are generally seasonal, such as cake dough, panettone, specific sweets. Everything took a long time to arrive. We were left with three containers stuck,”

he stated.

Despite this, with the rise in river levels, the situation is gradually normalizing and therefore, it was necessary to accelerate the internal logistics process to meet demand.

Gift option

On the market for 18 years, Big Cesta offers consumers a variety of basic and Christmas baskets. In addition to being a way of showing affection and attention, they can also be a great option for those looking to save time and money. The kits come with different types of products, from basic food items, such as rice, beans and oil, to more sophisticated items, such as wines, chocolates and fruits.

The founder of Big Cesta, Edson Maia, highlights that Christmas baskets are an excellent option for giving gifts to friends, family and employees. After all, they help to increase the celebrations, common in December.

“In this cycle, we want to show gratitude and how special each person is to us. This gift will be shared at family dinner with those who are part of our history and are with us throughout the year. At the end of the year, our hearts become more sensitive, and if we could put a little food on each family’s table, we would certainly do so. It may not be possible, but we can do our part by donating at least a little food to a family,”

he stated.

The physical education teacher and creator of Functional Kids do Tio Taffa, Taffarel Melo, guarantees that he is satisfied with the service.

“It really has an affordable price. I bought 12 baskets for my employees and they really liked them. I was very well taken care of. Furthermore, what also contributed to my being able to complete the purchase was the service via WhatsApp and in person, when picking up the items. It’s so worth it!”

thanked.
