Nimofast

What Nimofast does

Nimofast (legal name: Nimofast Commodity Supply) is a privately held Brazilian fuel import and distribution company founded in 2012 and headquartered in Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil, with operational presence across 17 Brazilian states and offices in 7. The company imports and distributes diesel (Óleo Diesel AS10 and AS500) and Gasolina A (gasoline A) to Brazilian enterprises and industrial operators, leveraging a global supply chain for procurement, ANP-mediated regulatory certification, customs nationalization, and proprietary storage tank infrastructure for distribution. It holds active ANP authorizations (N-156-2024 and N-823-2021) and has maintained 12 consecutive years of full compliance with ANP regulations.

The company's business model is a B2B sales-led approach in which transactions are priced individually through formal contracts covering volumes, prices, timelines, and pickup locations, with individually verified customer compliance prior to operation. Reported cumulative volume exceeds 5 billion liters of imported fuel over 12+ years, with 350+ million liters of national production supply guaranteed annually. Pricing is displayed on the website as spot FOB (without taxes); actual contract terms are negotiated directly. The GTM motion targets Brazilian fleet operators, industrial firms, and commercial enterprises requiring reliable fuel supply, scaled through direct enterprise negotiation rather than digital self-serve channels.

In 2026, Nimofast expanded into LNG (liquefied natural gas) via a 10-year supply agreement with Edge (a unit of Compass) for a fleet of JAC Motors gas-powered trucks, beginning with 60 trucks and scaling to 2,000 within 24 months. Under this contract Nimofast acts as transport platform operator covering fleet acquisition, leasing, fuel supply, and operations, with $1.53 billion (8 billion reais) in projected total commitments over the contract period and an estimated 80,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions avoided annually at full scale. A joint venture with Questerre Energy Corporation was disclosed in November 2025 alongside Questerre's acquisition of PX Energy, signaling intent to expand activity in the Brazilian energy market. Nimofast reports 1-10 employees and no disclosed revenue or external funding.
