Industrial lubricant manufacturer scaling sales and operations across Brazil
Agricopel manufactures industrial lubricants and specialty fluids with a 501–1,000-person footprint in Brazil. The hiring profile is heavily skewed toward sales (48 open roles) and operations (24), with sparse engineering (4) and data (2) capacity — a pattern typical of manufacturing and distribution businesses still building analytical infrastructure. Active projects center on organic expansion, licensing, and continuous improvement, while pain points cluster around forecast accuracy, profitability visibility, and maintenance response times.
Agricopel operates as a lubricant and specialty fluid manufacturer serving industrial customers in Brazil. The company maintains operations across sales, logistics, and supply-chain functions, with headquarters in Jaraguá do Sul, Santa Catarina. Current initiatives focus on geographic and product-line expansion, licensing processes, and operational efficiency gains via lean and six sigma methodologies. The tech stack reflects a traditional manufacturing setup: TOTVS Protheus (Brazilian ERP standard), SQL-based reporting, Power BI for analytics, and Python/Spark for data processing — indicating recent moves to centralize reporting and forecasting.
