WE CHAMPION AND PROMOTE BRAZILIAN ARTISAN CHEESE
Meet our members
There’s quiet work happening inside shops 365 days a year. Every day, we introduce a new producer, offer someone a taste, explain what makes a cheese special, tell its story and show people how to enjoy it. This work also builds the artisan cheese market.

Together, we continue building pathways to celebrate everyone who lives and breathes cheese and strengthen Brazilian cheese culture.
What we believe
We believe cheese is much more than a product: it carries a sense of place, culture, knowledge, and stories.
We believe in the strength of a connected supply chain, where producers, cheesemongers, and professionals grow together, share knowledge, and bring consumers closer to the richness of Brazilian cheeses.
Empowering those who live and breathe cheese means empowering an entire culture.
Why join an association?
Because together we have more strength to forge paths that would be harder to build alone. Collective action boosts representation, brings professionals closer together, and creates an environment of cooperation, knowledge sharing, and development for the entire industry.
How does being a COMERQUEIJO member benefit my professional work?
Being part of COMERQUEIJO means joining a network of professionals who share knowledge, experience, and opportunities. The association fosters connections, visibility, training, and participation in initiatives that help strengthen and raise the profile of cheesemongers.
What are the benefits of membership?
In addition to joining a national network of cheese professionals, members can take part in initiatives, projects, gatherings, content, opportunities, and programs promoted or supported by COMERQUEIJO. More than just accessing benefits, membership means actively helping build and strengthen our industry.
