What AIGLP - Asociación Iberoamericana de GLP does

AIGLP - Asociación Iberoamericana de GLP is a private, nonprofit industry association established around 1989 (referenced as 'more than 30 years of history') and headquartered at Rua da Assembleia, 66, 19º, Centro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The association's purpose is to promote good practices in the Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) sector across the Ibero-American region, with a focus on safety, service quality, efficient logistics, and technical-scientific development.

The association's core offerings include its annual Congress (the largest LPG industry event in Latin America, with 1,800+ participants and 70+ exhibitors at the 2026 edition in Buenos Aires), a concurrent GLP Fair, local workshops, technical publications including the 'Panorama Latino-Americano do GLP' magazine, the AIGLP TV multimedia platform, the WINLPG women-in-industry initiative (in partnership with WLPGA), a Compliance Program, and a Datos del Sector information service. AIGLP does not develop proprietary technology; its 'platform' is its convening capacity, member network, and content channels (website, newsletter, social media, video).

AIGLP operates as a membership-based association with a small staff of 6 employees. Its revenue is generated primarily through recurring membership dues from 60+ enterprise members and event-related income (congress registration, exhibition/sponsorship). The association does not publicly disclose financial details and has no external funding, venture investment, or parent company. Its distribution model is direct-to-member via the Rio de Janeiro headquarters, an online member portal, and in-person events held across the Ibero-American region.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• World Energy Council: Global multi-stakeholder energy umbrella organisation. Comparable to AIGLP as a convening/advocacy body, but operating at a much broader scope across all energy sources rather than specialising in LPG.
• International Association of Oil & Gas Producers (IOGP): Global upstream oil and gas industry association. Comparable industry-association operating model (advocacy, technical guidance, events, member working groups) but at a much larger scale and broader petroleum-industry scope than AIGLP's LPG focus.

Direct peers

• World LPG Association (WLPGA): Global umbrella industry association for the LPG sector. WLPGA is the most direct peer to AIGLP — both are non-profit trade bodies convening LPG industry stakeholders, and AIGLP is explicitly a strategic partner/regional ambassador for WLPGA through the WINLPG initiative.
• National Propane Gas Association (NPGA): US trade association for the propane (LPG) industry, providing advocacy, safety standards, training, and an annual expo. Highly comparable to AIGLP in mission and operating model, though serving the North American market.

Regional players

• AGREMGAS - Asociación Gremial Colombiana De Comercializadores de Gas: Colombian gas commercializers association and listed AIGLP partner. Adjacent to AIGLP's scope (broader natural gas/LPG commercialisation) with similar advocacy and member-service functions at the national level.
• Liquid Gas Europe: European LPG industry association representing distributors and equipment providers across the EU. Comparable to AIGLP in structure (non-profit trade body, advocacy, events, member services) but operating in a different geography (Europe vs. Ibero-America).
• AMEXGAS - Asociación Mexicana de Distribuidores de Gas LP: Mexican LPG distributors' association, a national-level trade body and explicit linked partner of AIGLP. Comparable in representing bottlers/distributors and engaging with Mexican regulators on LPG policy.
• Sindigás - Sindicato Nacional das Empresas Distribuidoras de GLP (Brazil): National union of Brazilian LPG distributors. A national-scale trade body representing the same constituency as AIGLP's Brazilian members (Ultragaz, Copagaz, Consigaz, Supergasbras) and a listed partner of AIGLP.
• CEGLA - Cámara de Empresas Argentinas de Gas Licuado: Argentine chamber of LPG companies and a linked AIGLP partner. Comparable structure (industry chamber, advocacy, member services) but focused exclusively on the Argentine market.
• GASNOVA - Asociación Colombiana del GLP: Colombian LPG industry association that co-organises the International GLP Congress. Mirrors AIGLP's role at the country level, advocating for Colombian LPG distributors and engaging with CREG.
