Be8 has completed the acquisition of three industrial units of Biopar, located in Nova Marilândia (MT), Floriano (PI), and Santo Antônio do Tauá (PA), as well as the Administrative Office in Cuiabá (MT). The closing of the operation occurred after the completion of the approval stages by the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE), obtained last Friday (01/10/2025).
With the completion of the operation, Be8 will expand its operations to the North, Northeast, and Midwest regions, strengthening its distribution network, diversifying raw materials, and production in different geographies. The company will also reach the third position in the national ranking of biodiesel production capacity. Currently, Be8 operates two plants in Brazil, one in Passo Fundo (RS) and another in Marialva (PR). The company is currently the leader in the Brazilian market, with over 10% market share, selling more than 900 million liters of biodiesel in 2024.
“This acquisition is very important for our company because we will now operate in three new regions of the country, allowing us to serve our customers nationwide and show Be8’s commitment to continue investing in the energy transition and expanding our operations in line with our strategic planning.”
With the incorporation of this volume, Be8, which currently has an annual capacity of 1.08 billion liters of biodiesel, will increase its total volume by 35.6%, consolidating its prominent position in the national biofuels market and totaling 1.47 billion liters of biodiesel per year.
With the expansion of operations, Be8 gains more space to produce and market Be8 BeVant, a new biofuel developed and patented by the company to be used pure (100%) in Diesel cycle engines. Be8 BeVant contributes to the decarbonization of the cargo transport, agribusiness, mining, and public transport sectors, as well as energy generators, with quality and performance gains.
Founded in 2007, Biopar operates in the biofuels sector, focusing on the production of biodiesel and glycerin. Its operations are distributed among three industrial units that together have an annual production capacity of 384 million liters of biodiesel. The plants located in Floriano (PI) and Santo Antônio do Tauá (PA) each have a capacity of 90 million liters, and the one in Nova Marilândia (MT) has a capacity of 204 million liters/year. The company has 320 employees
