Acquisition in Brazil: LAPP Takes over EUROCABOS
São Paulo/Stuttgart, July 3, 2025 – LAPP Group has taken over Brazilian connectivity specialist Eurocabos Materiais Elétricos Ltda., based in São Paulo: On July 1, 2025, LAPP acquired 100 percent of the company shares. With this merger, the company grows its footprint in the strategically important Latin American markets.
With its second strategic acquisition in just a few weeks, Germany-based LAPP Group continues to grow its global presence. Beginning of June, the company had announced the integration of Chinese connectors specialist Cableforce Electronics. Now, the globally leading supplier of integrated solutions and branded products in the field of cable and connection technology expands in Latin America’s largest economy.
Expanding LAPPs Footprint & Offering in Brazil
Matthias Lapp, CEO LAPP Group, says: “LAPP is committed to global growth: We want to supply our high-quality connectivity solutions to customers all over the world. Latin America in general and Brazil specifically are connectivity markets of the future. The economic potential is significant. Among several strong industries such as machine building and Food&Beverage, renewable energies promise to be a big lever in Brazil’s economic development going forward. I see great chances for LAPP.”
Through the acquisition, LAPP further strengthens its ability to serve these markets:
“Complementary products, reliable customer relationships, and a strong sales team: EUROCABOS brings a lot to the table and is a great fit for LAPP. Going forward, the two companies will be merged under the LAPP Brazil umbrella. I am very happy that the acquisition is now complete, and we will be able to serve our Brazilian customers with an even broader portfolio”, says Matthias Lapp.
EUROCABOS currently employs over 30 people. Both companies have agreed not to disclose the financial details of the transaction.
