Growth: Brazil's Largest Supplement Manufacturer

Growth stands as the largest supplement manufacturer in Brazil. The company has encountered a significant challenge in its sales operations, primarily attributed to the volatility in whey protein prices, which is a crucial ingredient in many of its products.

In a significant corporate development, Merama, a Latin American consumer brand holding company, had engaged Goldman Sachs to facilitate the sale of Growth. This transaction initially valued Growth at BRL 4 billion. However, the deal is currently on hold, reflecting the uncertainties in the market and the impact of fluctuating raw material costs.
