Jutica

What Jutica does

Jutica Produtos da Amazônia is a Brazilian e-commerce retailer headquartered in Tefé, Amazonas, that sells traditional Amazonian food products sourced from the Jutica community, located approximately 60 kilometers from Tefé in the interior of Amazonas state. The company's product portfolio spans two core lines: Uarini-style cassava flour (farinha ovinha), offered as individual 1kg retail packs at R$14.00 and wholesale fardos of 25x1kg at R$368, and castanha do Brasil (Brazil nuts), offered both as 130g dehydrated retail pots at R$19.44 and as 20kg wholesale caixas (pequena, média, grande, extra-grande, pedaço, ponta quebrada) ranging from R$1,127 to R$1,518 per box. Higher-value extensions include Óleo de Castanha do Brasil (250ml, R$36.84), Proteína de Castanha (200g, 72g protein, R$28.99), and a curated gift Kit Jutica (R$150, currently listed as out of stock). All production relies on traditional methods passed down through generations of the Jutica community.

The company operates a direct-to-consumer model through its own WooCommerce storefront at jutica.com.br, with payment processing handled by MercadoPago (credit/debit card, Pix, Boleto) and customer support via a Join.chat-powered WhatsApp widget. Volume discounts of 20–33% apply to multi-unit purchases of selected SKUs, and international buyers can request quotes for exterior shipments, indicating a quote-based international channel in addition to the domestic offering. The customer base spans individual Brazilian consumers, retailers/wholesalers purchasing bulk caixas and fardos, and a smaller international segment. There is no evidence of external venture or private equity financing, no headcount beyond the disclosed 18 employees, and no proprietary technology platform beyond the off-the-shelf WooCommerce stack.

A defining strategic feature is the social and environmental partnership with Associação Novo Encanto and Caixa's Fundo Socioambiental, covering the construction of 125 palafita houses across six riverside communities (Caiambé, Mamuriá, Marajó, Jutica, São Raimundo, Benfica), the planting of 3,000 castanheira seedlings, and biojoias art classes; 19 new houses and 6 refurbished houses had been delivered within nine months of project launch. The company also holds a registered trademark for "Jutica Produtos da Amazônia" and participates in cultural events such as the Feira Cultural organized by the Brazilian Army in Tefé, where the economic and cultural significance of castanha is showcased.
