The World Bioenergy Fair surpasses 2023 business generation by approximately 30% and positions Brazil as a global leader in the energy transition.

The Fenasucro & Agrocana has confirmed the optimistic scenario for bioenergy and its role as a global reference in promoting the sector by launching new technologies, equipment, and solutions, helping Brazil to play a leading role in the global energy transition, sustainability, and low-carbon mobility. Proof of this is that the fair reached R$10.7 billion in business deals, initiated during the four days of the event, surpassing the 2023 edition by approximately 30%, according to a survey conducted by CEISE Br among exhibitors.

The 30th edition of the fair also had a record attendance, a 6% increase compared to last year, with a highlight on the high qualification, with 67% of them indicating purchasing power. The generation of leads for exhibitors showed a 6% growth compared to 2023.

“The 30 years of Fenasucro & Agrocana were truly historic, as we broke records in business generation and the qualification of the audience present. We received more than 60 countries and representatives from all Brazilian states, who came to know our innovations, technologies, and products, which make Brazil the precursor of the global energy transition,” said the fair director, Paulo Montabone.

For the president of CEISE Br, Rosana Amadeu, the 30th edition of the fair was a great success, both in terms of audience and business. “The presence of Governor Tarcísio and other authorities, leaders, and entrepreneurs brought a new perspective to the potential of our industries, our region, and the capacity that Fenasucro & Agrocana has to bring together, in one place, innovation, technology, networking, and relevant agendas,” she said.

Business Deals Initiated The event attracted a qualified audience interested in new growth and innovation opportunities, motivated by the sector's good performance. As a result, exhibitors celebrated the positive results of the edition.

Bernardo Camara, the financial and commercial director of Citrotec, revealed that the fair exceeded the company's expectations in terms of traffic and prospective business. "It was a time to strengthen relationships and open doors to future opportunities. We had a 20% increase in the number of contacts compared to the previous year," he said.

However, he noted that the process of closing deals takes longer due to the complexity and need for detailed engineering of the products offered by Citrotec. "I am confident that the new contacts we made during the fair will be fundamental to the future growth of our company."

Meanwhile, SEW's sales manager, Fernando Zotarelli, highlighted the company's positive expectations for the future of the sugar mill sector in Brazil. He revealed that SEW is attentive to new opportunities and expansion projects emerging in the market.

“We received information from an engineering firm specializing in consulting for new projects and retrofits, including modernizations in mills, expansions, and improvements in the factory field. This is extremely positive for our company,” he said.

Zotarelli also highlighted the positive aspect for SEW of visiting Fenasucro & Agrocana. “We received important people who will be involved in future decisions. The relationships and business opportunities generated during the event are valuable for the company and for the development of future projects,” he concluded.

Presence of Big Names The fair brought together authorities, specialists, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders. During his visit to Fenasucro & Agrocana, the governor of São Paulo, Tarcísio de Freitas, stated that the answers to decarbonization and the promotion of sustainable agriculture are in the state of São Paulo and emphasized the importance of investing in technologies that not only boost the sector but also contribute to a cleaner and more diversified energy matrix.

Carlos Ubiratan Garms, honorary president of the 30th edition, stated that the fair was held at a unique moment in history, as the sector is part of the solution to one of the biggest global challenges, which is decarbonization.

“We need to increase the supply of clean energy by 30% to achieve decarbonization goals. Brazilian agriculture has the capacity to meet 90% of this production. The entire business chain is ready. It is a combination of factors that creates a truly exceptional scenario. We have to prepare ourselves, both the private and public sectors, to reach our full potential,” he reinforced during his visit to the event.

In 2025 The 31st edition of Fenasucro & Agrocana will be held from August 12 to 15, 2025, at the Centro de Eventos Zanini, in Sertãozinho (SP). The event, which has the exclusive official support of CEISE Br and is organized and promoted by RX Brasil, is the only one in the world exclusively focused on the entire bioenergy production chain. Annually, it brings together thousands of professionals from sugar mills, food and beverage industries, paper and pulp, transportation and logistics, and distributors and energy traders from Brazil and more than 60 countries worldwide.
