Origin: Envira, Amazonas

A river town far inside the Brazilian Amazon, reached by river or small plane. Açaí palms grow along the waterways.

Why here

Açaí berries must be processed within hours of picking. In remote places like Envira, that usually means selling fruit or frozen pulp — and the value is added somewhere else.

We want to turn that around: buy fruit locally, pulp it, freeze it and freeze-dry it in Envira. What leaves the town is a finished, light, shelf-stable powder.

What we plan to do on site

Buy fresh fruit from local harvesters during the season
Pulp and freeze under hygienic conditions
Freeze-dry, mill and pack in a dry room
Record batch number and harvest window on every pouch

What we will not claim

We do not claim certifications, organic status or volumes we do not have yet. When a batch exists, its lab results and documents will be shown here.

Life on the river.

Envira has no road connection. People, fruit and fuel travel by boat or small plane — and the river sets the rhythm of the day.
