The Andreani Logistics Group and Bekeu, a startup that developed a corporate procurement marketplace, have formed an alliance after the logistics group decided to invest in the platform, aiming to enhance efficiency in material supply through digitalized purchasing and distribution traceability. Additionally, Vista Energy and Pampa Energía are participating in this project through their venture capital arms.

This agreement seeks to provide a comprehensive solution that streamlines, standardizes, and modernizes industrial supply, benefiting companies of all sizes and industries—particularly in strategic sectors such as Oil & Gas, mining, and electric energy.

### **Marketplace and Logistics**
The alliance aims to improve the efficiency, traceability, and logistics experience for companies using Bekeu’s platform by integrating Andreani’s technological, operational, and distribution capabilities. This marks the first partnership in Argentina that combines a cutting-edge B2B marketplace with a logistics network covering 100% of the national territory, creating a digital ecosystem that accelerates the supply chain—from purchase to delivery—with top-tier service standards.

Gonzalo Cicilio, Energy Manager at the Andreani Logistics Group, stated: *”With this strategic partnership, we take a firm step toward innovation and the development of corporate supply chains. We know that today’s industry demands efficiency and competitiveness, which is why we’re working on a solution that improves material stock management, simplifies procurement, expands supplier options, and enhances delivery times.”*

### **Opportunities**
Considering Argentina’s context—including opportunities in Vaca Muerta, lithium, and copper—Andreani made the decision over four years ago to develop an energy-focused division, driven by its ability to add value to these industries’ supply chains through deep logistics expertise.

Ignacio Peña, CEO of Bekeu, emphasized: *”Partnering with Andreani strengthens our ability to transform corporate procurement across Argentina. This alliance ensures that every purchase made on our platform is delivered with the efficiency and real-time traceability companies need to make informed decisions.”*

### **Traceability**
*”Andreani is the ideal partner to scale our impact nationwide. This agreement allows us to guarantee that every purchase made through our platform arrives with the efficiency and traceability businesses require today to make real-time, data-driven decisions,”* he added.

Andreani and Bekeu offer a new value proposition for decision-makers in procurement, logistics, operations, and finance who seek efficiency, cost savings, and control in increasingly traceable environments.
