OXY GROUP

What OXY GROUP does

OXY GROUP (Grupo Oxy) is a privately held Brazilian industrial holding company headquartered in São Paulo, operating through five specialized subsidiaries: Oxy Metais (metals, with zinc as a core input), Oxy Fertilizantes (fertilizers), Oxy Galvanização (galvanization services), Oxy Transporte (captive logistics), and Oxy Reciclagem (recycling). The group is structured around a circular-economy thesis, where zinc-related byproducts from the metals and galvanization operations are routed into recycling and fertilizer production, with Oxy Transporte internalizing feedstock movement between sites. The integrated model is designed to reduce raw-material procurement costs and stabilize margins through commodity cycles.

The company serves B2B industrial customers across multiple sectors — including steel, agriculture, construction, and surface-treatment markets — and prices via quote-based contracts rather than fixed lists. As of the most recent input, the group operates in five Brazilian states (RS, SC, SP, MG, PE) with stated plans to expand into Rio de Janeiro and Bahia. No public revenue, funding history, M&A activity, named customers, or management roster is disclosed in the available data. Total headcount is 57 employees, distributed across the five subsidiaries.

The business model is asset-heavy industrial: revenue is generated through the sale of zinc-based inputs, galvanized products, fertilizers, recycled materials, and ancillary logistics services. The company captures vertical integration economics by recycling internal waste streams, but with a small headcount and no disclosed revenue, scale is modest. The primary strategic lever is geographic and vertical expansion within Brazil rather than international growth or platform/software adjacencies.
