Maciel Vieira will take charge of a directorate focused on direct sales in the Northern region of Brazil, following the ″successful work he had been doing, aimed at the growth of commercial operations,″ Albaugh said.

Daniel D’Andrea will maintain focus on distribution in the Southern Region, as well as on cooperatives and citrus and sugarcane crops. He will also take charge of the Albaugh’s Paraguay business unit, linked to its Brazil-Paraguay axis, the company added.

According to the multinational, the Paraguayan agrochemical market is now firmly on the radar, supported by the dedicated team’s efforts in that country.

Meanwhile, Jaime Hurtado will take over the newly created Commercial Directorate of Distribution in the Central-Northern Region of Brazil.

″He will also be responsible for the relationship with investment funds, while simultaneously holding the new position of Northern Distribution Commercial Director and overseeing distribution platforms and coffee culture,″ Albaugh said.

According to the company, the new commercial model is the result of the evolution of its market share and the growth of its distributed portfolio in Brazil.

The company stressed that it currently offers more than 50 strategic products for farmers and has gained strong traction in the customer portfolio across the national agricultural frontier.

Albaugh’s presence in Brazil comprises its headquarters located in the capital of the Brazilian state of São Paulo, as well as 13 sales regions throughout the country.

The company produces and markets agrochemicals suitable for major crops, such as soybeans, corn, cotton, citrus fruits, coffee, sugarcane, wheat, and beans, among others.
