Entre o declínio e a reinvenção: atualidade das funções do sistema público atacadista de alimentos no Brasil

Este artigo apresenta evidências das mudanças que estão se processando no aparato atacadista público de alimentos no Brasil abordando a evolução, as características atuais e as funções da estrutura atacadista do sistema brasileiro de abastecimento. O texto aborda algumas considerações sobre o contexto histórico vivido no momento de criação do Sistema Nacional de Abastecimento (Sinac) nos anos 70 e a emergência de novos modelos para os mercados atacadistas a partir dos anos 80. É realizada uma análise com base na observação dos dados coletados junto a 29 centrais de abastecimento públicas brasileiras em 2009 com informações sobre origem e destino dos hortigranjeiros comercializados nesses entrepostos a partir de uma amostra significativa. Os padrões sistêmicos podem ser observados através de dois aspectos: o desempenho da atividade econômica dos principais entrepostos atacadistas brasileiros e as funções remanescentes de reunião e distribuição da produção local e regional. Pretendemos demonstrar que o grupo de centrais públicas de abastecimento é bastante heterogêneo e que, de maneira geral, a dinâmica do seu crescimento é estabelecida de fora para dentro , sendo que muitos destes equipamentos não mais exercem papéis centrais como executores de políticas públicas voltadas para o abastecimento.
