Notícias de Chapada covers news about the town of Chapada dos Guimarães, in Mato Grosso. Its story begins with Luciana Bonfim, who was a press officer for a councilor in Cuiabá. In 2019, she was fired due to a reduction in the office's budget.
As a result, the journalist moved to Chapada dos Guimarães, 65 km from the capital, and founded the site as an attempt to survive. The beginning was quite challenging, but as there were no news sites in the city, she soon managed to get local advertisers, publicity from the state government, and the legislative assembly.
The site has become the municipality's main information channel, filling a crucial gap in local news coverage.
