André Pires de Oliveira Dias has informed his decision to resign from his position as Chief Financial and Investor Relations Officer (CFO) of Ultrapar and will depart from the Company to engage in new professional challenges.

Rodrigo started his career at Treasury and was responsible for M&A, Corporate Planning and Investor Relations at Ultrapar. In 2014 he joined Extrafarma’s board of executives. Since June 2018, as the CEO of Extrafarma, he has led an important process designed to strengthen and strategically redirect such business. Rodrigo holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Fundação Getúlio Vargas and an MBA from Stanford University.
