Gauss
Discover our history
Curitiba – Paraná, Brazil. Beginning of the 90's.
In that decade, our little blue box was born, which initially carried a simple voltage regulator inside it. A component that in the future would no longer be the only one in the portfolio and would pave the way for the next steps.
Over time, the small package no longer carried just one piece. Within it were also the first years of evolution.
Evolution that turned a small family business into one of the largest spare parts manufacturers in Brazil.
Today, we are experts in vehicle electronics, providing a giant parts portfolio with over 6,000 SKUs for electrical, lighting, electronic injection, cooling and air conditioning, and ignition for light and heavy vehicles, whether in the field, on the road or in the city. We've become multifunctional.
We shorten distances and break barriers acting geographically with our factories, a headquarters in Brazil (Curitiba), which feeds three Distribution Centers across the country, and with our second factory located in China (Jiaxing), which supplies the world market directly and indirectly through our Distribution Center in Poland.
Thanks to this structure built over the years, we conquered the first positions within the Brazilian aftermarket, in addition to covering five continents of the planet, serving and taking our colors to more than 60 countries.
We have become an internationally recognized and respected Brazilian multinational. Evolution has become our routine.
With continuous investments in our own manufacturing, logistics structure and technology, we are more connected than ever, and together with our teams we continue to develop and strengthen our position in the global aftermarket.
So we walk our path, with the evolution in our past, present and future.
