This paper presents a case of food production, especially ice cream producing made of Brazilian native fruits, and the engagement of the poor population and women in the production of healthier products and a more sustainable production. It is about of accessing native fruits in the Brazilian savanna and, therefore, in the base of production, that it is necessary to recognize the role of small and medium producers in the social and environmental transformation of poor or depressed areas. Especially since small and medium producers still have areas of native forests on their land, while large areas of production are generally destined for commodity production. The Frutos do Brasil company is therefore analyzed for its performance in the face of more sustainable forms of production, because it invests in the production of healthier foods, in stimulating small and medium producers of food, in stimulating the maintenance of native vegetation, and inserting more poor and women in the productive process.
A análise da relação entre a especialização territorial da cidade de Uberlândia-MG, Brasil, e o desenvolvimento dos serviços de informação e comunicação, representados principalmente pelas empresas CTBC-Telecom e ACS Contact Center, pertencentes ao Grupo Algar, consistiu no objetivo central deste artigo. Foram abordadas as ações desencadeadas desde o final dos anos quarenta do século XX pelo empreendedor Alexandrino Garcia e pelo político Rondon Pacheco. Para identificar o conjunto das ações que influenciaram a definição do papel de Uberlândia na rede urbana brasileira, delimitamos um recorte temporal que começa no início do século XX e segue até o final da década de 1990, para contemplar os principais fatos nacionais, regionais, locais, e o desenvolvimento das telecomunicações no Brasil, que influenciaram no desenvolvimento de Uberlândia. Propusemos uma periodização que articulasse as diversas escalas geográficas, e trabalhamos com a hipótese de que Uberlândia não se consolidou apenas em função de um só tipo de agente, mas que a centralidade de Uberlândia deriva também do suporte comunicacional oferecido pelo desenvolvimento dos serviços ligados às tecnologias de informação e comunicação. Essa conjectura não exclui o papel dos atacadistas, mas acrescenta os serviços de tecnologia de informação que, enraizados na cidade possibilitam a comunicação com outros locais e as negociações de empresas - inclusive estrangeiras - a partir dos centros de atendimento e de contato.
Geographic Indications (GI) represent a collective trademark created to protect producers and promote the trade of products that have become notorious due to its region of production. Therefore, the main objective of this paper is to provide an overview on the concepts of GI and provide the main relevant facts and figures of GI worldwide and in Brazil.As of July 2019, more than 130 thousand of GIs were registered at the World Intellectual Property Organization, mainly in Europe, Asia and the Americas. In Brazil, as an emerging economy, GI is becoming an increasingly important, both in terms of protecting Brazilian typical products as well as the GI from other countries trading with Brazil. Consumption trends towards originality, typical products, expressing certain quality attributes may further develop businesses in different parts of the world. Consumers with higher income may prefer certain quality attributes for the products and services they consume. In this context, GI represent a strong and sustainable strategy to provide those goods and services to those demanding consumers.
This paper aimed to present and discuss the craft beer production in Goi as state, Brazil, where brewers do not own the necessary equipment (gypsy breweries). Therefore, a literature review combined with qualitative interviews with gypsy brewers were carried out. The industrial and crafted forms of production have not been annu lled, and forms of production have arisen that involved processes of sharing the infrastructures of large companies and crafted producers, as in the case of gypsy breweries, cuckoo or ghosts. The practices of gypsy breweries, therefore, left Europe and gai ned the world, and came to materialize in Goiás, Brazil. A country that stands out in the production and consumption of beer. Among the main positive aspects of the practice of gypsy brewing in Goiás, it was possible to perceive the stimulation of diversified consumption, the possibility of using equipment in a more efficient way, taking advantage of moments of vacancy, sharing knowledge, and stimulating improvement in the quality of production, and, among the main bottlenecks are the distribution structures of production, and, the existing taxes in Brazil.
