Beumer Group recently confirmed that it has grown its South American footprint with the integration of the former FAM operations in Brazil, Peru and Chile.
The move, which follows up the company’s takeover of FAM Minerals and Mining in 2022, has created what will now be known as Beumer Group South America.
Officials said the former FAM operations have become an integral part of the Beumer family, and it will offer customers access to the full range of Beumer automated material handling solutions and services.
Continuity of service will be assured as Paulo Costa, former head of FAM operations in the region. He has now been named the new CEO of Beumer South America.
“FAM has a strong reputation within the mining and minerals industry in Brazil, Peru, Chile and beyond, which gives us a strong foundation to build upon,” Costa said. “As part of Beumer Group, we will continue to support our customers in mining and minerals, while also expanding our reach to offer high quality handling solutions for airports, ports and terminals, warehousing and logistics to customers throughout South America.”
He added that, by combining the skills and expertise inherent in the FAM and Beumer brands, the teams based in Brazil, Peru and Chile will support customers throughout South America to deploy handling solutions that improve efficiency and drive down operational costs.
