In the vibrant state of Minas Gerais, nestled in southern Brazil along the Atlantic Ocean, Ignacio Carlos Urban embarked on a journey in the 1970s fueled by a dream, determination, and a passion for producing quality coffee on a grand scale. His humble beginnings with soybeans blossomed over 45 years into Grupo Farroupilha, a sprawling operation encompassing various facets of agriculture.
Today, Grupo Farroupilha boasts state-of-the-art labs dedicated to seed analysis and coffee quality assessment, alongside a thriving cotton plant that processes fiber produced by the company. With diversified ventures in coffee trading, a bustling transport yard, and a cutting-edge fertilizer mixer, the legacy of Ignacio Carlos Urban continues to thrive.
