Argon & Co enters Latin America with new office in Brazil
Global operations and supply chain consultancy Argon & Co has entered Latin America with the launch of a new office in Brazil.
Based in São Paulo, Argon & Co’s latest new office (and 16th worldwide) will serve the entire Latin America market, offering the firm’s deep specialist knowledge across operations strategy and transformation with local on the ground expertise.
Yvan Salamon, the chief executive officer of Argon & Co, said the management consulting firm was delighted to be entering a new region, as the player seeks to build a business with a global reach.
Established in 2018 by the merger between France’s Argon Consulting and UK’s Crimson & Co, Argon & Co today has over 350 consultants worldwide. The firm is backed by private equity group Ardian.
In Brazil, Argon & Co will be led by Eduardo Oliveira, a former Kearney, McKinsey & Company and Ayming consultant who brings over two decades of consulting and industry experience to the role. He specialises in cost transformation, procurement, logistics and product development, with a strong focus on industrial clients such as automotive.
“I am thrilled to head up the new Argon & Co office in Brazil and be able to expand our global service offering to our Brazilian and Latin American clients. It is an exciting time to be part of Argon & Co’s global growth while we strengthen our position in the Brazil and the region.”
Earlier this year, Argon & Co launched an office in Saudi Arabia (its second in the Middle East), and acquired firms in New Zealand, China and Australia.
