The history of Melbras began in 1990 when Carlos Augusto Delfim Carneiro, founder of the company, won a beehive from a friend and started beekeeping as a hobby. Over time, what was a hobby turned into a business. The growing production and high quality of honey led Carlos Augusto to a prominent position in the commercialization in the State, being one of the pioneers in the market. Innovative, entrepreneurial spirit, great experience and knowledge in the beekeeping market served as the basis for building the company, which from the beginning had the union of a family passionate about the field - this, in fact, the great foundation for the growth of Melbras.
