Ambev has tax incentives extended until 2032 in Paraná; factories in Ponta Grossa and Carambeí are included
Measure published in the Official Gazette expands the scope of the company's tax benefits and establishes an obligation to reinvest part of the funds in social actions
Ambev had its tax incentives extended until December 31, 2032 on the Paraná. The measure, published in the State Gazette on Thursday (24), includes the company’s industrial units in Ponta Grossa and Carambeí, in Campos Gerais, as well as other establishments of the company in the Paraná territory.
The decision is contained in Special Scheme No. 9.106/2026, published by Receita Estadual, which amends and extends the tax treatments granted to Ambev through the Paraná Competitivo Program. The document also establishes conditions for the reinvestment of part of the tax benefits in actions of social interest.
Ponta Grossa and Carambeí factories are contemplated
The document identifies three Ambev establishments directly related to the special regime: the brewery located on the banks of BR-376, in Ponta Grossa; the glass bottle factory located on PR-151, in Carambeí; and the refrigerant manufacturing unit installed in Almirante Tamandaré, in the Metropolitan Region of Curitiba.
One of the main amendments establishes that the tax incentives provided for in the scheme now reach all establishments linked to the CNPJ root 07.526.557 located in Paraná. The act also determines that such amendment shall have retroactive effect on 1 January 2021, the date of commencement of the Protocol of Intent No 001/2021.
The extension of the differentiated tax treatments was formalized through the third term additive to the protocol of intentions signed with the company.
Ambev to reinvest part of tax benefits
In addition to the extension and extension of the incentives, the new scheme establishes an obligation of social reinvestment. Ambev must allocate the equivalent of 3% of the sum of the tax benefits enjoyed, referring to the reduction of the calculation base of the ICMS due for tax substitution and the presumed credit, to social actions in the areas of sport, culture, education or health.
The document provides that this reinvestment is carried out in accordance with Paraná State management programs. As an alternative, the company may deposit the amounts in an account linked to the Paraná Competitivo Program, with subsequent forwarding of the proof to the area responsible for monitoring reinvestments.
The measure therefore establishes a condition of application of part of the tax benefits granted to the company in initiatives of social interest.
What is the value of the incentives granted?
Despite confirming the extension and extension of tax treatment, the document published in the Official Gazette does not inform the total financial value of the tax incentives granted to Ambev. It also does not present a detail of the benefits corresponding specifically to the Ponta Grossa and Carambeí industrial units.
The publication does not announce new investments in the two cities, expansion of factories or opening of jobs as a result of the measure. The Special Regime No. 9.106/2026 was signed on September 10, 2026 and entered into force on the date of its publication in the Official Gazette.
