Rumo S.A. is a Brazil-based logistics company specializing in rail‐based freight transportation and intermodal solutions. Established in 2013 within the Cosan Group’s logistics arm, the company consolidated several regional rail concessions to form one of the largest private freight networks in Latin America. In 2017, Rumo completed a public offering on the Brazilian stock exchange, gaining greater visibility in both domestic and international capital markets.
The company operates an integrated platform encompassing more than 14,000 kilometers of rail lines across southern and southeastern Brazil. Rumo’s core services include bulk transport of agricultural commodities such as soybeans, corn, sugar, ethanol and fertilizer, as well as steel, minerals and other industrial goods. Complementing its rail network, Rumo manages a network of transshipment terminals, silo complexes and storage facilities, providing clients with end-to-end logistics support from hinterland production zones to coastal export ports.
Rumo’s rail corridors link key agribusiness regions in Mato Grosso, Paraná and São Paulo to major maritime gateways including Santos, Paranaguá and Itaqui. By leveraging its extensive infrastructure and proprietary scheduling technology, the company aims to optimize cargo flow and reduce transit times for customers. Majority-owned by Cosan, Rumo is governed by a board and executive team with deep experience in transport, energy and industrial operations, and continues to pursue capacity expansions and digital enhancements to support growing demand in Brazil’s commodity markets.
