Kepler Weber raises R$150 million with the International Finance Corporation

Kepler Weber announced the signing of a financing agreement of up to R$150 million with the International Finance Corporation (IFC), an institution of the World Bank Group, for the modernization and expansion of its industrial plants located in Panambi (RS) and Campo Grande ( MS).

As the company informed, the financing, in reais, protects Kepler Weber from any exchange rate exposure, being corrected by the CDI variation plus an additional "spread".

The agreement provides for a payment period of seven years, with an initial grace period of 24 months for the amortization of the principal, conditions that Paulo Polezi (in the photo), CFO of Kepler Weber, describes them as fundamental to "reinforce the company's strategy and contribute to its greater financial strength through the diversification of financing sources".

This strategic movement is part of a series of investments that the company has been making, which totaled R$179,4 million between 2020 and 2023, applied to the expansion of factories, information technology and the development of new products. Kepler Weber currently employs more than 1,7 people.
