About Us

We have been working for over 45 years to build the future of our business partners.

CHALLENGES FOR 2020

The year 2020 is expected to be quite challenging, as the macroeconomic scenario of the Angolan economy does not foresee any improvement and the 7% growth that is expected in the volume of business will have to be distributed among the other three geographies. The outlook for the Mozambican economy is positive, although the big leap will happen only from 2022 onwards. In Portugal and Spain, growth will only be possible if the political stability of the minority governments that are in power is lasting.

I want to thank all Centrocar employees for the committed and proud way they represent the company in interacting with all the entities with which it relates, because that is the only way it has been possible to continue to grow and be a reference in the sector where we operate.

We want Centrocar to remain modern, flexible and dynamic, as well as a benchmark for its customers, its suppliers, its employees and its shareholders.

Environmental responsibility

Centrocar is concerned with its surroundings, seeking in its activity to leave the smallest possible ecological footprint and thus ensure the preservation of the environment for future generations.

It is Centrocar's concern to comply with legal standards aimed at maintaining a sustainable environment, protecting it from exposure to polluting residues, such as oils.

In Portugal, the collection and treatment of waste oils is supervised by a specialized entity, SOGILUB, which gives Centrocar proper treatment of its waste; Valorpneu and Valorcar ensure that used products, tires and batteries, respectively, are properly treated at the end of their useful life, safely collecting and disposing of them.


In Spain, certification focuses only on oils, and is the responsibility of SIGAUS, with a similar role to SOGILUB in Portugal.

Although in Angola and Mozambique it is not subject to certification, Centrocar insists on complying with its own sustainability and preservation standards while keeping the environment clean.

Centrocar respects all the efforts made by these entities, and cares for the environment, with the awareness that it is necessary to preserve the space around us and ensure sustainable development over the years.
