Rumo S.A. is a Brazil-based logistics company primarily engaged in the operation of freight railways and intermodal transportation services. The company’s core business involves the transportation of agricultural commodities, industrial goods and bulk cargo across its extensive rail network. Through dedicated rail corridors and integrated terminal facilities, Rumo provides end-to-end logistics solutions that include loading, hauling and transshipment of products for both domestic distribution and export markets.
Formed following the acquisition and subsequent consolidation of rail assets previously held by América Latina Logística, Rumo launched as an independent publicly traded entity in 2016. Since then, the company has expanded its concession portfolio to cover more than 12,000 kilometers of track across Brazil’s South, Southeast and Midwest regions. This network links major production areas—such as Mato Grosso, Paraná and São Paulo—to key maritime ports, enabling efficient movement of soybeans, corn, sugar, ethanol, fertilizers and steel products.
In addition to rail haulage, Rumo operates a series of terminal and storage facilities that serve as critical nodes in its integrated logistics chain. These include grain elevators, container yards and barge-loading terminals located at strategic river and coastal ports. By offering value-added services—such as inventory management, in-transit monitoring and railcar marshalling—the company aims to optimize supply-chain efficiency, reduce transit times and lower costs for shippers and exporters.
Headquartered in São Paulo, Rumo S.A. is majority-owned by the Cosan group and trades on Brazil’s B3 exchange as well as in the United States’ over-the-counter market under the ticker RUMOF. Governed by a board of directors and an executive management team, Rumo continues to invest in network expansion, rolling stock modernization and digital technologies to support the ongoing growth of Brazil’s export-oriented agricultural and industrial sectors.
