MBRF reports record net revenue of R$ 164 bilion and 8.2 million tons in 2025
Historic results reflect progress in processed products, international expansion, and investments in production capacity
São Paulo (SP), March 18, 2026: MBRF (MBRF3), one of the world’s largest food companies, a global leader in hamburger production, and owner of iconic brands such as Sadia, Perdigão, and Qualy, recorded net revenue of R$ 164 billion in 2025, a 12% increase compared to 2024. Total sales volume increased by 4%, reaching 8.2 million tons of food. During the period, EBITDA reached R$ 13.2 billion, with a margin of 8%, while net income totaled R$ 358 million.
The results presented highlight the company’s robust and efficient management model, even in a year marked by temporary restrictions on international chicken trade due to avian influenza. Throughout the period, the company maintained consistent growth in its operational indicators and discipline in executing strategic initiatives, leading to savings of R$ 1 billion through its efficiency program.
The growth strategy was supported by investments totaling R$ 5.3 billion in Capex. The funds were directed toward expanding production lines, increasing capacity, and optimizing and automating industrial facilities. “We prioritized advancing higher-value-added products and strengthening production capacity, in line with the structural growth in global demand for protein,” notes José Ignacio Scoseria, Vice President of Finance and IR.
In addition, the company has invested approximately R$ 1 billion in strategic acquisitions. Key moves include the acquisition of a processed meat plant in Henan Province, China; entry into the chilled chicken segment with local slaughter operations in Saudi Arabia through Addoha Poultry Company; and the acquisition of a 50% stake in Gelprime, expanding the portfolio to include gelatin and collagen.
This set of initiatives strengthens MBRF’s multi-protein platform and positions the company to continue its growth trajectory through 2026.
Results by Operation
In the BRF operation, net revenue for 2025 reached R$ 65 billion, a 5.8% increase year-over-year, consolidating a consistent growth trajectory. In the domestic market, the company recorded record sales of processed products, a 7% increase in total volume compared to 2024. This performance was driven by sustained high levels of commercial execution and the expansion of the customer base, which grew by 8% during the period.
In the GCC countries, the company achieved its highest-ever volume in the processed foods segment and gained 1.3 percentage points in market share, reaching 38.6%. In line with its international expansion strategy, in 2025 the Company announced the creation of Sadia Halal, in partnership with the Halal Products Development Company (HPDC), strengthening its presence in one of the world’s most significant markets for halal proteins.
In 2025, the company reached the milestone of 230 new certifications, the result of a consistent drive toward geographic diversification that began in 2022. The resumption of poultry exports to the European Union announced at the end of the year and the reopening of the Chinese market following the lifting of restrictions imposed due to avian influenza broaden the prospects for the company’s expansion in strategic markets.
In its North American Beef operation, MBRF reported net revenue of US$14 billion, an 11.8% increase over the previous year, driven by resilient demand for protein. EBITDA reached US$133 million and remained positive despite the U.S. cattle cycle.
In South America, the company recorded 15% growth in volume and 20% growth in net revenue year-over-year. The segment’s EBITDA reached R$ 2.2 billion, a 28% increase compared to 2024, reflecting investments made in capacity expansion, with gains in volume, revenue, and profitability.
“MBRF strengthens its competitive advantages through a broadly diversified global presence and a multi-protein portfolio capable of serving different markets and consumer profiles. “The business model reduces exposure to market-specific cycles, while the growing importance of processed products with higher value-added demonstrates the company’s ability to innovate, capture consumer trends, and differentiate itself through quality, convenience, and brand,” comments Miguel Gularte.
ESG and People
In 2025, the company fulfilled its public commitment to achieve 100% monitoring of the beef supply chain across all Brazilian biomes where animals are domestically sourced, a model that MBRF already applies to the grain supply chain. During the same period, the company earned a CDP Triple A rating, a distinction that places it among a select group of companies with proven excellence in climate, water security, and forest protection.
In people development, MBRF recorded the completion of over 1.8 million training sessions, totaling 4.2 million hours of training. The period was also marked by the promotion of approximately 10,000 professionals, a result of the company’s ongoing investment in qualification, learning, and internal development.
