Fertilizantes Tocantins: growing in the challenging fertilizer business
Fertilizantes Tocantins was founded by José Eduardo Motta in 2003, out of his desire of taking advantage of the fast-growing agricultural businesses in the northern region of Brazil. He had previous knowledge of the fertilizer sector due to his work in his father’s business for several years. After an impressive success and enormous growth rates until 2016, 50% plus one shares of the company were sold to EuroChem, a European fertilizer producer. This was part of Fertilizantes Tocantins’ strategy to achieve even greater and sustainable growth. In 2020 EuroChem bought the remaining shares of Fertilizantes Tocantins, becoming its sole controller. The company still maintains most of its operational structure and now is fueled with capital and other assets from EuroChem. The challenge ahead lies in being able to maintain the organizational culture and winning position while bringing the best of its controller’s assets to achieve the goal of being a leader in the Brazilian fertilizer market.
