€2.1 Million Tender to Upgrade Health Centers in Oliveira de Azeméis Left Nearly Deserted

SAPO Notícias30 August 2026 at 16:20

A public tender of 2.1 million euros for the requalification of health centers in Oliveira de Azeméis received practically no proposals. The investment, funded by the Recovery and Resilience Plan, aimed to modernize the health units of the municipality.

Five of the six interventions planned in the tender received no proposals from companies interested in carrying out the works. Only one of the interventions managed to attract interest from bidders.

The situation puts at risk the planned schedule for the modernization of the health units in the municipality, as the execution timelines set under the European funding may be compromised by the lack of response from the construction market.

Local authorities now face the challenge of reformulating their strategy to carry out these interventions, seeking alternatives to attract companies willing to carry out the requalification works at the health centers in Oliveira de Azeméis.

The diesel crisis is expected to worsen with the start of planting in Brazil

Brazil is about to begin the planting season amid a global diesel supply crisis, coinciding with the seasonal peak demand for the fuel that powers the agricultural sector. Even with the prospect of a record soybean harvest, producers face challenges due to diesel scarcity, which is essential for tractors and trucks. As Brazil is the world's largest exporter of crops such as soybeans, cotton, coffee, sugar, and orange juice, an increase in agricultural costs could spread through global supply chains. The country is the world's second-largest diesel importer, behind only Australia, which means the peak of Brazilian planting should further worsen the global diesel shortage.
