Our
company
Since 1960, a symbol of quality, trust, and tradition.
The Certano Group
The Certano Group is synonymous with quality, tradition, and trust in the manufacturing and distribution of food, cleaning, and personal hygiene products. With a strong presence in the southern states of Brazil and in São Paulo, we have built a solid track record based on operational excellence and customer satisfaction.
Our portfolio is led by a complete line of sugar products, developed to serve everyone from end consumers to large industries and retail chains. We offer everything from traditional Crystal Sugar — with translucent, well-defined grains — to special varieties such as Extra Fine Sugar, Premium Sugar, Demerara, and Brown Sugar. For industrial use, we offer Confectioners’ Sugar, Granulated Refined Sugar, and VHP.
With packaging ranging from personalized sachets to 1,200 kg Big Bags, we deliver practical and efficient solutions tailored to each client.
More than variety, we offer fast and personalized service, with a team prepared to build lasting and trustworthy relationships.
History
Our history began in 1960, when Portuguese immigrant Antônio Luz Dias opened a dry goods store in Cambará/PR. Together with his wife Maria and children Luis, Ricardo, and Antônio, the small business flourished through hard work and dedication.
In 1978, we began packaging sugar and created the Certano brand. After Mr. Antônio’s passing in 1990, his children took over the company’s management, expanding operations and diversifying the product range.
