What Ipesa does

Ipesa (legal name IPESA S.A.C.) is a privately held Peruvian heavy machinery distributor founded in 1979 and headquartered at Av. Nicolás Aylón 2241, Ate, Lima. The company is the authorized dealer in Peru for a portfolio of globally recognized OEMs — John Deere (agriculture and construction), the Wirtgen Group family (Wirtgen, Vögele, Hamm, Kleemann, Benninghoven) for mining and road solutions, DAF and Kenworth for trucks, Aksa for power generation, and Yanmar and Bergkamp in supporting roles — and operates six vertical divisions: Agriculture, Construction, Mining, Road Solutions (Soluciones Viales), Energy, and Trucks, supported by specialized sub-brands including Ipesa Energía, Ipesa Camiones, Ipesa Minería, and Especialistas Ipesa.

The business sells new heavy equipment across all six divisions, distributes OEM spare parts (transmission, chassis, hydraulics, lubricants), and delivers after-sales service through a national network of 11 fully-equipped workshops and the 'Especialistas IPESA' service team. The product catalog spans specialized tractors, excavators, wheel loaders, bulldozers, motor graders, surface miners, mobile jaw and cone crushers, vibrating screens, asphalt mixing plants, milling machines, slipform pavers, rollers, generators, and heavy-duty trucks, plus emerging categories such as agricultural drones for precision farming. Technology offerings include a 'Soluciones Tecnológicas' service integrating machines with authorized-distributor support.

Revenue is generated through three streams: (1) one-time heavy machinery sales (hardware), (2) recurring after-sales service, maintenance, and OEM parts supply (professional services), and (3) equipment financing to facilitate customer purchases. Pricing is quote-based rather than published, with customers requesting personalized quotes through the company's 'Cotiza' system. The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer across Peru via the corporate website (ipesa.com.pe), division-specific websites, physical showrooms, and the nationwide workshop network, targeting enterprise buyers in agriculture, construction, mining, road infrastructure, energy, and logistics.
