Ultrapar Participates S.A.

Reaching a new level Ultrapar is one of Brazil’s largest and most solid economic groups. It has operations in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, United States and Venezuela, enjoying an outstanding position in the three sectors in which its business units operate: distribution of fuel through Ipiranga and Ultragaz, production of chemicals through Oxiteno and integrated logistics solutions for special bulk cargo through Ultracargo. In 2007, Ultrapar acquired the fuel distribution operations of the Ipiranga Group in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil, with the main purpose of broadening the scope of its activities in the fuel distribution sector. Ultrapar, which was already the largest distributor of LPG (liquefied petroleum gas, or cooking gas) in Brazil through Ultragaz, became the second largest player in the fuel distribution business, with a market share of approximately 14% through Ipiranga.

Ultrapar’s operations are founded on constantly improving its results and achieving excellence on its operations. National and international certifications in the environmental, health and quality areas, as well as intense programs for the development and training of its employees, attest to the company’s commitment to its stakeholders and to society as a whole. Management tools such as Economic Value Added (EVA®) and Balanced Scorecard (BSC®) are used on a day-to-day basis, accelerating the company’s consistent and sustainable growth.
