Aqua Capital Acquires Rech Tratores for ~BRL100m (em português)

April 5, 2021

Aqua Capital has agreed to acquired Rech Tratores, a Brazil-based reseller of spare parts for heavy and agricultural machinery,  for ~BRL100m. 

(Amanhã) O Fundo de Investimentos Aqua Capital anunciou nesta segunda-feira (5) a aquisição da Rech Tratores, revendedora sediada em Itajaí (SC). A empresa é focada no segmento de peças de reposição linha amarela. A companhia se junta à plataforma de investimentos Rech, que já conta com a Rech Agrícola e a Verde Agrícola, que atua no setor de distribuição de peças de reposição para maquinário agrícola, como tratores, colheitadeiras, plantadeiras e pulverizadores. Com a aquisição, a empresa passa a oferecer produtos para máquinas pesadas de todos os segmentos e em todas as regiões. O valor do negócio não foi divulgado, mas a operação pode ter movimentado quase R$ 100 milhões.

Fundada por Gilberto Rech em 1994, a Rech Tratores se transformou em uma das maiores importadoras de peças para máquinas pesadas e agrícolas do país. Ao todo, a empresa tem hoje 10 lojas e centros de distribuição espalhados por todo o Brasil. “Com a aquisição da Rech Tratores, que volta a fazer parte do mesmo grupo após dois anos, teremos a consolidação do grupo Rech dentro do Aqua Capital, que também conta com a Verde Agrícola, adquirida no último trimestre de 2020. O grupo já nasce como líder no mercado de peças de reposição para os segmentos de linha amarela e linha verde”, comenta Gustavo Pimenta, operating partner do Aqua Capital.

Após a consolidação do negócio, o Grupo Rech contará com 25 lojas, sendo 10 centros de distribuição, e empresa, aproximadamente, 650 funcionários. Além disso a empresa conta ainda com 10 franquias. O setor de reposição de peças no Brasil movimenta cerca de R$ 15 bilhões por ano e mantem um forte ritmo de crescimento que varia entre 7% e 10%. O Aqua Capital é a maior empresa de private equity da América Latina com foco na cadeia de agronegócio e alimentos. Atualmente, o fundo conta com, aproximadamente, US$ 600 milhões em ativos sob gestão e possui posições de controle em onze empresas reunidas em diferentes plataformas
