- Vamos Locação de Caminhões, Máquinas e Equipamentos S.A. (VAMO3.SA) operates as a leading provider of long-term rental services for trucks, machinery, and equipment in Brazil, offering fleet outsourcing, leasing without operators, maintenance services, telematics via Vamos Controle, and carbon-neutral solutions through Vamos Carbono Zero; it also engages in the sale of pre-owned rental assets via 16 owned stores, distribution of Komatsu and Manitou brands in Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul states as well as Toyota Forklifts in interior São Paulo and Minas Gerais, and industrial customization through subsidiaries Truckvan (road implements with 54 distributors nationwide) and BMB (automotive customization with exclusive Volkswagen Caminhões & Ônibus partnership). The company serves sectors including agribusiness, energy, transportation, logistics, and e-commerce with a fleet exceeding 50,000 assets, emphasizing asset management, fleet renewal, and tailored solutions for heavy-duty operations across Brazil. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil, Vamos Locação functions as a subsidiary of SIMPAR S.A. and listed on B3's Novo Mercado segment since its 2021 IPO, with inclusion in the IBOVESPA index from 2023. In December 2024, the company completed a strategic spin-off of its dealership business (trucks, buses, machinery, and yellow line) to sister entity Automob Participações S.A. within the Simpar Group, forming Brazil's largest dealership network and enabling Vamos Locação to focus exclusively on high-growth heavy asset leasing; this restructuring supports projected fleet expansion to 56,000 vehicles in 2025, record used vehicle sales growth of 87% year-over-year in Q3 2025, and contracted CapEx acceleration with internal rates of return above 20%, alongside deleveraging to a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.3x.
