History and Development

JBS was founded in 1953 in the city of Anápolis, Goiás, Brazil, by José Batista Sobrinho. The company began as a small slaughterhouse supplying beef to regional markets.

Over the following decades, JBS expanded its operations within Brazil through acquisitions and increased production capacity.

Beginning in the 2000s, the company initiated an international expansion strategy, acquiring meat-processing companies in the United States, Australia and Europe, significantly increasing its global presence.

These acquisitions transformed JBS into one of the largest food companies in the world and diversified its operations across multiple protein segments.

In recent years, the company has focused on operational efficiency, global supply-chain integration and investments in sustainability initiatives within the food production industry.
