We were incorporated on December 20, 1953, with our origins going back to 1937,
when Ernesto Igel founded Ultragaz and pioneered the use of LPG as cooking gas
in Brazil, using bottles acquired from Companhia Zeppelin. The gas stove began
to replace the traditional wood stove and, to a lesser degree, kerosene and
coal, which dominated Brazilian kitchens at the time.
Ultrapar is a Brazilian company with more than 80 years of history, with leading
positions in the markets in which it operates: the Oil & Gas value chain,
through Ipiranga, Ultragaz and Ultracargo, specialty chemicals through Oxiteno
and retail pharmacy with Extrafarma.
We are a company incorporated under the laws of Brazil. Our principal executive
office is located at Brigadeiro Luis Antônio Avenue, 1343, 9th Floor, 01317-910,
São Paulo, SP, Brazil. Our telephone number is +55 (11) 3177 7014. Our internet
website address is http://ri.ultra.com.br.
