The biotechnology company specialized in microencapsulated probiotics for animal nutrition, announced its entry into the Brazilian market with Fortcell Feed® Cattle, alongside Champion Saúde Animal, a benchmark with more than six decades in animal health and nutrition in Brazil. The agreement marks Bialtec’s direct presence in the world’s largest cattle market and aligns with its regional expansion plan.
Bialtec will ship 10 tons of Fortcell Feed® Cattle for the commercial launch in Brazil. The initial goal is to reach 100,000 head of cattle in the state of Goiás over the next 3–4 months, incorporating the product into Champion’s mineral supplements and local formulas. In parallel, both companies plan to establish production facilities in Brazil within two years, to optimize logistics and accelerate technology adoption.
“Brazil is strategic for our vision of transforming animal nutrition in Latin America and worldwide. Having Champion as a local partner gives us support, credibility, and reach to demonstrate the impact of Fortcell Feed® on productivity and sustainability.”
Why is this alliance important?
Scale and market traction: Brazil has more than 200 million cattle; Goiás alone accounts for over 20 million and is one of the key production hubs in the Central-West region. By comparison, Colombia has nearly 30 million head of cattle. Partnering with Champion provides immediate access to a high-volume market.
Champion Saúde Animal: six decades committed to productivity
With more than 60 years of history and headquarters in Anápolis (GO), Champion Saúde Animal is one of Brazil’s leading companies in animal health and nutrition. Founded in 1959, its focus on solutions for productivity, animal welfare, and profitability has positioned it as a natural partner for scaling technology in the country’s livestock sector.
In summary: Bialtec’s entry into Brazil, beginning in Goiás and backed by Champion, is not just an internationalization milestone: it is the gateway to a global-scale market where microencapsulation technology can transform digestive efficiency and, in turn, the productivity and sustainability of livestock farming.
