Ambev announced that it will stop its beer production in Viamão, in greater Porto Alegre, to bottle drinking water and donate it to the population of Rio Grande do Sul. Around 850,000 473 ml cans of water will be produced per day at the plant in Rio Grande do Sul.
The company needed to take some machinery from São Paulo to make the adaptation of its factory possible. “As a Brazilian company, we are and will always be at the side of Brazilians in all situations”, says Jean Jereissati, president of the company.
Ball provided aluminum cans for production. Ambev stated that it will begin distributing the water this Wednesday, 8th.
In recent days, the company has already donated more than 560 thousand liters of water to the state – 185 thousand liters for the population of 11 affected municipalities and 375 thousand in water trucks to meet the water needs of hospitals in greater Porto Alegre .
