Ultrapar (BM&F Bovespa: UGPA3, UGPA4 / Nyse - UGP) is a Brazilian group, with operations in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, USA and Venezuela, and differentiated position in the three segments in which to operate its business units: distribution of fuel through the Petroleo Ipiranga and Ultragaz , production of chemicals through Oxiteno and integrated logistics solutions for special bulk with Ultracargo. In 2007, Ultrapar acquired the operations of distribution of fuel in the Ipiranga Group's Southern and Southeastern regions of Brazil, with the aim of expanding its activities in the area of distribution.

In 2008,through Petroleo Ipiranga, Ultrapar bought the operation of Chevron, known as Texaco, in Brazil.
