Librelato ended 2022 with reasons to celebrate. The 20% growth in sales compared to the previous year was possible thanks to the 12.500 units sold from January to December, reaching sales of 2,1 billion reais. 

According to CEO of Librelato, José Carlos Sprícigo, this is due to the search for greater profitability and better quality of the products offered by the company. A perfect combination of robustness, high quality and availability that generated excellent results for Librelato and made 2022 a cause for celebration.

In 2022, Librelato established its dominance in the Brazilian market, achieving a 14,2% share. The success of the Evolut series was decisive for this growth, as tipper models led sales with 30% of the total and the bulk line contributed with 17%.

The demand in Librelato factories in Santa Catarina increased so much that more than 50 units were produced per day. In addition, 800 units were shipped to foreign countries such as Paraguay, Chile, Uruguay, Bolivia, Colombia, Ghana and Uganda.

Librelato, the third largest importer in Brazil and the second largest exporter of semi-trailers, is aiming to expand its sales in 2023. To that end, it is working to increase its daily production by 12%. 

In addition, investments of 30 million reais will be made during the year to improve the production process and the quality of implements. In 2022, BRL 46 million were invested in improvements and technologies to ensure the excellence of all services offered by the manufacturer from Santa Catarina. 

With all this, Librelato expects to achieve significant growth and gain even more prominence in the Brazilian market. A Librelato entered 2023 full of news, inaugurating an industrial unit in Içara (SC). The venture will generate 600 indirect jobs and carry out 140 direct hires. This expansion will make Librelato reach 1.800 professionals working for it, boosting the region's economy with great benefits.

Librelato ended the year 2022 with 21 Libreparts stores spread throughout Brazil, strategically distributed among the five regions. For 2023, the goal is to reach 30 units. However, 4 Box Libre Parts were installed in Caucaia (CE), Uruçuí (PI), Irecê (BA) and Imbituba (SC) to better serve customers. Thus, Librelato reaffirms its commitment to remain present in the main regions of the country.

In January, road implement sales remained strong and stable. Data indicated that products intended for vehicle transport are maintaining their good performance in the market.

A Brazilian industry of road implements registered significant stability in the number of deals carried out in January 2023, according to the official balance sheet of the National Association of Road Equipment Manufacturers (ANFIR). 11.657 road implements were delivered and registered throughout Brazil, representing a minimum decrease of only 0,03% in relation to the same period of the previous year.

ANFIR also hopes that Fenatran's results will be recorded in the coming months, reinforcing the industry's performance. When analyzing each segment separately, there was a growth of 3,67% in sales of bodies on chassis – 5.118 units sold – while the segment of trailers and semi-trailers recorded a slight drop of 2,75%, totaling 6.539 units sold.
