What Amaggi does

Amaggi is a privately held Brazilian agribusiness founded in 1977 by André and Lúcia Maggi, headquartered in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, operating across the agricultural value chain through four business units: Agro (1.2M tonnes/year of soy, corn, and cotton produced on owned farms), Commodities (18M tonnes/year of grains and fibers traded globally), Logistics and Operations (ports, warehouses, river and road fleets), and Energy (renewable generation via small hydroelectric plants and solar). The company serves a supplier network of approximately 10,000 rural producers in Brazil, international commodity buyers in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, and — via the 2024 Milhão partnership — food industry manufacturers of non-GMO ingredients.

Amaggi's technology stack centers on the proprietary ORIGINAR Platform 2.0 for geo-spatial traceability, the Telemeclima 24/7 production monitoring system, and the first agricultural meteorological radar deployed in Mato Grosso. Sustainability programs include ORIGINS (deforestation- and conversion-free grain certification), ACTS (cotton traceability with QR access), and Amaggi Regenera (low-carbon agriculture). The company holds multiple international certifications (RTRS — first company certified worldwide — ProTerra, 2BSvs, ABR/BCI, ISO 14001) and is a signatory of the Science Based Targets initiative.

Revenue is generated through agricultural production sales, commodity trading margins, logistics service fees, energy offtake, agricultural inputs distribution to partner producers, and the Milhão non-GMO ingredients portfolio. Distribution is mixed: direct field representatives across Brazilian producing regions, the Amaggi On digital portal/app, Coupa procurement for suppliers, Superbid auctions for assets, and international commercial offices in Argentina, Netherlands, Switzerland, and Singapore. The company is unrated by equity markets but carries a Ba3 corporate rating from Moody's (negative outlook, July 2026), reflecting elevated leverage of 4.5–5x EBITDA following the July 2026 acquisition of a 40% stake in FS (Brazil's #2 corn ethanol producer), debt-financed alongside a $702M funding round.
