A shipment of 3.6 million liters of biodiesel is on its way to the port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands. The cargo was produced at JBS plants located in Lins, in the interior of São Paulo, and the shipment took place at the port of Paranaguá (PR).
The last large-scale biodiesel export was recorded in December 2015 when about 11.3 million liters of biodiesel left the country also heading to the Netherlands. After that, only small-scale exports were made mainly to the United States and Israel.

The deal was closed by ECB Brazil, a trading division of fuels belonging to the ECB Group – a holding company that brings together the businesses of Brazilian entrepreneur Erasmo Carlos Battistella, founder and president of BSBios. BSBios was the first Brazilian manufacturer to export biodiesel in mid-2013.
However, the exported biodiesel was not produced by BSBios, but by the JBS unit in Lins (SP). The plant has held ISCC environmental certification since March 2013.
Currently, JBS is the only Brazilian company in the sector with export certification for the product to the European market.
According to ECB Brazil’s Commercial Manager, Manfred Wefers, the exchange rate facilitated the deal. “The exchange rate issue as well as the opportunity to supply one of our European clients provided an interesting price window for the biofuel,” the executive stated.
