How hard work, persistence, passion leads to quality
Apiário Flor de Mel is a family-owned business based out of Sao Lourenço, Minas Gerais. Known for its agricultural excellence, Minas produces world-renown coffee, cheeses, honey and green propolis. We started as just a vision when Marcos Carnevalli rode out into the mountains of “Serra da Mantiqueira” in the 1990s to build and care for his apiaries.
Over the years, hard work, persistence, and passion paid off as we expanded into the production and distribution of honey and beeswax in 2012.
In 2019, leadership of the company was transferred from Marcos to his daughter Julia who has continued to innovate and transform the business into who we are today. In 2021, we expanded internationally with our first export of propolis extract to Japan; another exciting step on our fascinating journey.
