Copersucar Overview

Company Headquarters: São Paulo, Brazil

Founded: 1959

Workforce: ~11,300

Company Working: Copersucar, a Brazilian company, trades ethanol and sugar. The company exports to the Middle East, Northern Africa, and Asia in addition to selling bagged white sugar on the home market. Besides exports to the US, it also offers domestic sales of anhydrous and hydrous ethanol. Alvean Global Traders and Eco-Energy are the company's two subsidiaries. In order to connect ethanol production with flexible storage capacity close to the main ethanol consumer markets in Brazil, the company and the UK's BP Biofuels came to an agreement in November 2017 to form a 50/50 joint venture to own and run the Terminal Copersucar de Etanol in Paulnia, in the state of So Paulo. The company reached 48 operational mills in the states of So Paulo, Goiás, Paraná, and Minas Gerais over its 50 years of operations. Copersucar is a distinctive business strategy because it blends improvements in scale in logistics, commercialization, and risk management with production efficiency in the mills run by the producers.
