The Bom Prato program's units in the Alto Tietê area of Brazil, which primarily provides affordable meals, will be closed on Tuesday, February 17, in observance of the Carnival holiday. This temporary closure affects four municipalities: Mogi das Cruzes, Suzano, Itaquaquecetuba, and Ferraz de Vasconcelos, which are the only cities in the region offering these restaurant services. The public is informed that regular operations will resume on Wednesday, February 18.

These Bom Prato locations play a crucial role in providing essential meals to the community, especially for those in need. With the Carnival holiday prompting a suspension of services, locals relying on these affordable meal options will need to make alternative arrangements for the day. The closure reflects a pattern in Brazil where many services pause during this festive period, emphasizing the cultural significance of Carnival in the country.

In contrast, other Bom Prato units elsewhere in the state of São Paulo, specifically in areas like 25 de Março, Limão, Refeitório Mauá, and São Mateus, will remain open. This circumstance highlights both the regional differences in service availability and the widespread participation in Carnival festivities that often leads to temporary business closures across the nation.
