Açaí is “the face of Brazil”. It is a versatile fruit widely used in cooking: in the north of our country, its pulp sets the tone for the preparation of a juice known as “açaí wine”; in the southeast, it is considered a refreshing dessert; while in Pará, for example, it is eaten fresh, accompanied by flour and fish.
Regardless of how it is prepared, açaí has long been considered a sacred fruit in many regions. According to some legends, the fruit came to be consumed and known as sacred after the cacique Itaki experienced serious hunger problems with his people, making it the main food of the indigenous nation located in the Amazon Rainforest.
With a strong, purplish color, açaí is the raw material for two incredible products in our portfolio.
Constantly committed to socio-environmental development, Concepta Ingredients addresses its projects in this area through the Bio Abundance Program, which is responsible for building opportunities for local families and conserving the environment.
