TIMELINE

Our office was founded in 1982 by Luiz de Alencar Araripe Jr., Hans Otto Schoeder and Shigeji Uchida, in Rio de Janeiro because the Brazilian PTO (INPI) is located in Rio.
We opened a branch of Araripe in São Paulo, in 2001 to broaden our activities in Brazil’s biggest and most vibrant business city.
We transferred our administrative headquarters from Rio de Janeiro to Petrópolis, maintaining the Rio de Janeiro’s Office as a branch. Our intention was to provide a better lifestyle and purchasing power for our staff.
