Piantare is a family-owned company focused on investments in the real estate sector, fruit production and derivatives, reforestation, and environmental services.
Piantare was founded in 2017 along with the Serra do Tombador Project, the result of a study on the potential of the Chapada Diamantina region, in Jacobina (BA), aimed at agroforestry and pastoral activities.
This pioneering work involved the experimental planting of several fruit and timber species, identifying those best adapted to the local soil and climate conditions.
As a result of this study, the first African Mahogany forest in the Chapada Diamantina was planted—a challenge that has proven promising.
In fruit production, the first species chosen was Pitaya, which has stood out from the beginning as highly promising, already positioning Piantare as the third-largest producer of the fruit in Brazil.
Located about 250 km from the fruit-growing hub of the São Francisco Valley and 340 km from the Port of Salvador, the company is strategically positioned to distribute its production and efficiently supply the domestic market. After all, the Brazilian Northeast is our primary target market.
In addition to the Serra do Tombador project, Piantare invests in coconut and açaí production in the Baixo Sul region of Bahia, as well as leasing land for energy generation in the Morro do Chapéu area.
The company is preparing, in the near future, to also operate in the hospitality and sustainable condominium sector, taking advantage of the scenic and climatic potential of the Serra do Tombador and the Jequiriçá Valley.
Avocado, however, is the fruit that occupies the largest planted area on the farm, and once the goal of reaching 450 hectares by 2029 is fulfilled, Piantare will position itself among the five largest producers in Brazil.
Ponkan tangerine is an experimental crop that has also shown great promise and represents Piantare’s initiative to evaluate the behavior of a citrus plant in the region.
Over time, the altitude, mild temperatures, and market potential have revealed a new natural vocation: the cultivation of berries—such as strawberry, blackberry, blueberry, raspberry, physalis, and also grape.
Today, the Serra do Tombador project has more than 200 hectares planted, with the goal of reaching 600 hectares by 2029.
