Seafood Specialist
Lent is traditionally the busiest period for the seafood sector in Brazil. For Food Service — which includes restaurants, hotels, and specialized retail — this is not just a "sales peak" moment, but an opportunity to build loyalty with customers seeking superior quality during the red meat abstinence.
If your business is preparing for this period in 2026, understanding trends and ensuring a premium supply is what will separate success from simple operation.
The Scenario of Opportunity
Consumption of fish and seafood grows exponentially in these weeks. However, the modern consumer is more demanding: they don't just want "fish", they seek provenance, freshness, and flavor.
For bars and restaurants, this means the chance to create seasonal menus that raise the average ticket. For retail, it is the moment to highlight noble cuts that attract the public who prefer to cook at home but do not give up sophistication.
