Her uncle and aunt, Pelegrino José Donato and Luiza Trajano Donato had a retail store in Franca, named Magazine Luiza.[4] She worked on the firm through several sectors, such as collection and sales, before becoming the company's director-superintendent, in 1991.[5] Under her command, Magazine Luiza became a chain of more than 800 stores, spread into 16 Brazilian states.[6]
