MARKET ANNOUNCEMENT
Additional Information on Sadia’s R$1.5 billion investment in the State of Mato Grosso
On September 19, Sadia S.A. announced a R$1.5 billion investment in the State of Mato Grosso, that will be distributed between 2006 and 2009. Sadia will be responsible for R$800 million, and the remainder will be done by its out growers. The amount will be directed towards the construction of two poultry slaughter houses, one in the city of Lucas do Rio Verde, and the other in the city of Campo Verde. Each one of them will have the slaughter capacity of 500 thousand animals per day. As part of this investment, Sadia will also set up a slaughter and industrialization hog unit, with slaughter capacity of 5 thousand animals per day, and a feed factory. The new units will generate 8 thousand direct jobs and 24 thousand indirect ones.
Regarding the investment announced in the State of Mato Grosso, Sadia S.A. presents the following additional information:
· Sadia’s R$800 million investment will be distributed as follows: 50% in 2006; 25% in 2007 and the remainder 25%, in 2008.
· From 2007 on, the poultry slaughter houses will operate with 20% of capacity. In 2008, it is expected that these units will operate with 85% of capacity, reaching their full capacity in 2009.
