After eight years as Chief Financial and Investor Relations Officer of Ultrapar, André Covre will take over as Chief Executive Officer of Extrafarma.

André Pires has worked in similar position in Gerdau, and has experience in large companies with responsible financial management culture and international outreach.
As the head of Ultrapar’s Corporate Center and as a member of its executive board, André Covre led relevant strategic moves for the strengthening of the competitive positioning and the scale of Ultrapar and its businesses, such as the acquisitions of Ipiranga, Texaco, União Terminais and the merge with Extrafarma. André Covre’s appointment to Extrafarma represents an investment of the Company in the development of its retail pharmacy business, where the characteristics of differentiation, operational excellence and growth will be boosted.
“Ultrapar’s financial management is built on the pillars of operational excellence, focus on value creation, support to the growth and to the constant evolution of its corporate governance, and André Pires, in addition to the know-how developed throughout his career, shares such working philosophy. As usual, we will conduct a planned and comprehensive integration and transition process during the next months”, said André Covre.
Thilo Mannhardt, Ultrapar’s Chief Executive Officer, welcomes André Pires as an opportunity for new contributions to the Company’s executive board. Throughout its history, Ultrapar has evolved with a view of blending experiences from executives who developed their careers in the Company with those coming from other companies, enabling continued innovation and preserving the fundamentals of a company of almost 80 years of history.
“The permanent development of leaders aligned to Ultra’s culture and the close collaboration among all executive officers are key factors for our sustained growth. The changes announced today adjust the Company to a new phase of consistent and planned growth”, said Thilo Mannhardt.
