Toyoda Gosei to Acquire Full Ownership Stake in Plastic Automotive Parts Manufacturer in Brazil
Kiyosu, Japan, August 25, 2017: Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd. will acquire a 100% stake in Pecval Industria Co., Ltd. (Pecval), a manufacturer of automotive interior and exterior parts in Brazil, by December 2017. This move is intended to consolidate Toyoda Gosei’s business foundation in the country’s promising market.
Currently, Pecval is jointly owned by Toyoda Gosei and Shimizu Industry Co., Ltd. (headquartered in Kariya, Aichi, Japan)*. The two companies have agreed that Toyoda Gosei will acquire full equity interest from Shimizu.
Toyoda Gosei has two business locations in Brazil, Pecval and GDBR Industria e Comercio de Componentes Quimicos e de Borracha Ltda., which supply interior and exterior parts, safety systems, and weatherstrips to automakers. Making Pecval a full subsidiary will strengthen Toyoda Gosei’s supply system for interior and exterior parts to better meet the purchasing needs of customers.
