Lucas Coltrin
Trader and sales assistant
Ameropa Brazil
"I was born in São Paulo state, however, it was in the south of Brazil where I qualified as an International Trader at Caxias do Sul University. After graduating, I decided to move to the capital city of São Paulo to seek new opportunities, facing a new life in a concrete jungle the biggest city in south America!
I joined Ameropa in June 2016 where I work as a trader and sales assistant to the Brazilian director Erik Schoen. I am fully responsible for the sales of special fertilizers in Brazil and give support to Erik by selling bulk fertilizer such as Urea, AMSUL, MAP, GSSP, GTSP, among others. I also work with the Brazilian fertilizer statistics that are reported to the head office in Binningen and arrange and organize the fertilizer positions for Brazil.
I am proud of being part of a team that sells more than 2 million tons of fertilizer in the Brazilian market. This total represents around 6% of the total imports of the Brazilian fertilizer market which is one of the biggest in the world. It’s all about getting along with your customer, developing a friendship and partnership with them, together with the reliability that Ameropa has in the market, this makes fertilizers sales flow more easily."
