What Nutre Group does

Nutre Group (NUTRE, SGPS) is a privately held Portuguese agro-industrial holding company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Oliveira de Frades, Portugal. The group operates three integrated business areas across five countries (Portugal, Romania, Angola, Brazil, Mozambique): Farming, which cultivates cereals and oilseeds (corn, barley, wheat, sunflower, rapeseed, soybean) across approximately 68,900 hectares with 70,000 tons/year cereal throughput in Romania and 37,600 HA in Brazil; Food Production, which manufactures the Shoyce soy drink and liquid yoghurt brand (the only 100% Portuguese non-transgenic, lactose- and gluten-free soy producer, with 30M liters beverage capacity and 9M yoghurts/year at the Vagos facility) and the Atlantis bottled water brand in Angola (124M liters/year); and Risk Management, which provides commodity trading intermediation and hedging services both to group entities and to external clients through Nutre SA.

The business model combines B2B agricultural commodity sales to five named global traders (ADM, Cargill, Glencore, Louis Dreyfus, Expur) via an intermediation unit, consumer packaged goods distribution through major Portuguese retailers (Jerónimo Martins, Sonae, Dia, Grupo Auchan, El Corte Inglés) for Shoyce and through six Angolan distributors for Atlantis, and international distributor partnerships for Shoyce in Spain, Hong Kong, Macau, China and Taiwan. Revenue mechanics span transaction-fee commodity intermediation, professional services (hedging and corporate management), and hardware-style consumer product sales. Downstream vertical integration includes the Bunge-Prio oilseed processing joint venture and Prio Biocombustivel biodiesel operations in Romania.

Technology and R&D focus on non-transgenic soy processing, iterative soil testing with profit-per-hectare-driven seed selection, the Okara byproduct research initiative, and latest-generation water purification systems for the Atlantis line. The consolidated disclosed operating headcount is approximately 317 (127 Romania, 150 Angola, 40 Portugal food operations), with additional corporate, Brazil and Mozambique staff undisclosed. Brand ambassadors include entertainer Nuno Markl and chef Hélio Loureiro supporting Shoyce's commercial positioning.
