This collaboration ceremony brought together key industry leaders and stakeholders from Brazil, Lebanon, and the GCC region.
In a celebration of collaboration, innovation, and progress, AltaRock discussed strategies to strengthen commercial operations with Paraná, focusing particularly on the paper and cellulose segment, an area in which Paraná is one of the highlights in Brazilian production. In addition, AltaRock expressed interest in exploring additional sectors beyond cellulose and paper, such as animal proteins, commodities, and other offerings available in Paraná.
Top executives from INDEVCO Group, an international group of manufacturing companies of corrugated, plastic and paper packaging, tissue, as well as household, institutional, and personal care disposables, headquartered in Lebanon and operating in over 65 countries, alongside from Napco National, a leading manufacturer of plastic and paper packaging solutions, recycled resins, corrugated packaging products, consumer products and business to business (B2B) solutions, were present at the collaboration ceremony.
"This meeting is another demonstration of the growing interest of international businesses in the Paraná market, whose GDP grew on average more than countries like India and China in 2023. Globalizing our economy is one of the factors that has contributed to Paraná's growth," said Governor Ratinho Junior.

We are a major importer of paper and pulp and as such we bring valuable know-how in shipping, trading, and procurement and are eager to tap into this promising market," said Pierre Akl Vice President of Altatrade.
