Hello friends!
My name is Leandro dos Santos, I am Brazilian and I was born in 1982 (I'm 29 years old). I live in São Paulo, the largest city in my country, but my house is away from the city center, so with a bit of tranquility in this departure from the bustle of a city that does not seem to sleep.
My father came from City of Cantanhede, Portugal, in 1962 with my grandparents and settled in São Paulo, in a neighborhood called Umarizal, earning a living through agriculture and livestock on a farm very small, almost entirely for their livelihood. At 19 years old, my father began working with earthmoving and truck drivers (still powered by gasoline) and machine operator.
In January 1980 my uncle and father started his excavating company called "Umarizal Terraplenagem S/C Ltda" (Umarizal was the name of the neighborhood and Terraplenagem is the translation in Portuguese of earthworks). The company started with a 4x2 truck and a track loader Caterpillar 933. I Leandro, joined the company in 2001 when my uncle retired.
Over time, the company name was changed to Umarizal Locação e Terraplenagem (In English, Umarizal Rental and Earthworks) and the company became a solid and over time new equipment was purchased to meet the needs of our customers, but we chose not to have employees and we are always present and in direct contact with customers. We operate the machines and drive the trucks, carry out the maintenance, management, dissemination, all in the family, my father, my mother, my wife and me together forever!
Today, we have two trucks and three machines:
01 Dump Truck Dodge D950 6x4;
01 Dump Truck Mercedes-Benz L2220 6x4;
01 Track Loader Caterpillar 941;
01 Backhoe Loader Case 580H;
01 Skidsteer Case 95XT.
In parallel, develop and maintain some sites related to my field of activity. They are:
I came to this forum to learn and where possible help by contributing what you can.
From now on, thank you all for openness (I've had in some threads) and congratulations for the beautiful work.
Hug!
