Jonas Zucchi
Founder and President
Jonas Zucchi
I started working when I was 13, but it was as an adult that I founded my first company, a distributor of dynamite and equipment for extracting rocks. It was there that I had my first contact with the natural stone sector, and since then I have never left this universe that fascinates me so much.
Over time, I expanded my business to include slabs export, always seeking quality and innovation. At that time, I invested in the best polishing machine on the market, and this search for the best became a constant in my career.
At Zucchi, I had the privilege of leading transformations that marked the sector in Brazil. We were pioneers in bringing Italian Polishing and the first line of resin to the country, raising the quality standard in the processing of natural stones. I always believed that, with cutting-edge technology and excellence in each stage, it would be possible to take Brazil to another level in this market.
I am very proud of the fact that we have built a solid structure, with the best processes and production lines. But I believe that we still have a long way to go. Brazil has the largest variety of stones in the world, and our challenge is to make these stones reach even further, winning over architects, designers and clients on every continent.
With 30 years of history, I can say with confidence: now that we are adults, we will do more, better and faster.
I am a big fan of reading and I take care of my health with dedication. I believe in the balance between work and well-being, because that is what allows me to continue with the energy to dream big and achieve even more.

My story with Zucchi started in the field, inspecting slab and inspecting raw blocks before they were even polished. I have always had a technical eye and paid attention to details, and it was with this eye that I participated in important moments in our history, such as the launch of iconic materials such as Fusion and Taj Mahal.
Over the years, I took on new responsibilities and, when we made the strategic decision to set up our own sawmill, I was called to lead this project. From then on, I took on the role of Industrial Director, with the challenge of expanding our structure and further raising the standard of our processes.
Since then, I have been leading the construction and expansion of our manufacturing plant, bringing cutting-edge technologies, new machinery and solutions that put Zucchi at the forefront of the ornamental stone industry. I work daily with a focus on innovation, whether in inputs, processes or machinery, always seeking greater efficiency, quality and consistency in each stage of production.
I see Zucchi as a reference in industrial processes, and I am proud to be part of a team that never settles, that anticipates trends and that transforms technology into value for the market and for the customer. Being here is, for me, the chance to build the future with my hands, a future that is increasingly technological and precise.

Innovation and Marketing Manager
Bruna Zucchi
I am Innovation and Marketing Manager at Zucchi Luxury Stones, where I have been working for four years with the purpose of transforming the future, without losing sight of the essence of who we are.
My degree in Business Administration from High Point University in the United States, followed by a Masters in International Management from the International University of Monaco, gave me a solid foundation for thinking broadly, strategically and in a way that connects with the world. In courses such as Stanford, MIT and Harvard, I immersed myself in topics that move me: innovation, technology and purposeful leadership.
I lived and studied in the USA, France and Italy, where I worked at Aon in Milan, developing B2B businesses. These experiences shaped my outlook: more than seeking efficiency, I learned to seek impact, human, real and sustainable.
I am a marathon runner and aspiring triathlete, driven by bold goals and daily overcoming. Outside of work, I dedicate part of my time to rescuing stray animals, because I believe that transformation begins with small actions.
At Zucchi, my greatest pride has been leading a transformation that combines innovation with culture and consistency. I have structured processes, implemented tools and created rituals that have made our daily lives more efficient, connected and intelligent, always with the goal of improving the experience we deliver and strengthening our way of doing things, with greater clarity, agility and impact.
I believe that innovation is not about chasing trends, it is about creating meaning. It is about listening, adapting, testing, making mistakes and evolving. It is about making Zucchi increasingly prepared for a market in constant transformation, without ever renouncing our essence.
When I look to the future of Zucchi, I see a global benchmark brand. A company that combines the raw beauty of nature with cutting-edge processes, true technology and memorable experiences. A brand that doesn’t just sell stones, but delivers emotion, purpose and impact, and that will continue to grow with courage, consistency and awareness.

Logistics Director
Leonardo Tatagiba
I've done everything in Zucchi. It's more than 30 years of history, a whole life built together with this company that I helped build from scratch. I started working with Jonas even before the company was founded. Zucchi, and I've been officially here since 1987. I had a brief two-year break, and in 1990 I returned as a partner, taking over this project that has become one of the greatest prides of my life.
In the beginning, there were only five of us. I took care of the administrative, financial, accounting, tax, personnel… I did whatever was necessary. At that time, each person had to be everything. When we entered the ornamental rock sector and founded Zucchi, I went from operations to sales. It was a small unit, we produced around 3.000 m² per month, but the desire to grow was huge.
Then I went into sales, where I stayed for about 14 years. I had the privilege of developing the American market, creating ties with clients who are still part of our history, and helping to position the Zucchi in the world. Then I took over the industrial area for 2 to 3 years before moving to where I am today: the purchasing sector.
I believe my greatest recent contribution has been to transform the way Zucchi buy blocks. The variety and quality we have today are not by chance, they were built with careful attention, years of experience and a lot of dedication. That is why our customers find everything they are looking for here. Zucchi It has become a reference because it delivers not only the best product, but also the widest range of options with consistency and excellence.
When I look to the future, I see the Zucchi going even further. With the best materials, the best processing and an increasingly qualified, committed and passionate team. Zucchi It is, and will always be, part of my history, and I am very proud to see everything we have built and everything that is yet to come.
Leonardo Pellegrino
Chief Commercial Officer
Leonardo Pellegrino
Zucchi has been part of my life for 25 years. More than a career, this journey has become a true passion. I have a degree in Administration, with a post-MBA in Management, and I have had the privilege of growing professionally within a company that has never stopped evolving, and that has taught me the value of courage, innovation and always looking ahead.
Over the years, I have lived intensely through each transformation: the expansion of the industrial park, the birth of the first marble factory in the Americas, the arrival of new technologies, new products, new markets. I spent four years outside of Brazil, taking the Zucchi to the world, and bringing back learnings that only international experience provides.
I have worked in almost every area of the company, which has given me a deep connection with our culture and with every step of what we do. Today, leading the sales department, I carry with me this history, and the commitment to continue building the future of Zucchi with the same enthusiasm as the first day.
I see a bright future ahead. A future in which our brand grows stronger globally, uniting cutting-edge technology, data intelligence and emotional intelligence. But above all, I see a Zucchi true to its essence: passionate about natural stones and driven by people who believe that what we do goes far beyond transforming stones, we connect people to nature.

Administrative and Financial Director
Janaine Oliveira
I have been working in the Administrative and Financial areas for over 25 years, and for over a decade I have had the pleasure of being part of the Zucchi Group, where I built a solid career full of learning. I joined the company as a Cost Analyst and, over the years, I took on new challenges and led strategic areas such as Tax, Accounting, Human Resources, IT, Purchasing, Warehouse, Occupational Safety and Foreign Trade. I also actively participated in the development of strategic and tax planning projects.
I have a degree in Accounting and I specialize in Tax Law, Business Management and Human Resources Management. I maintain a constant routine of updating, mainly on topics such as digital transformation and artificial intelligence applied to business, because I believe that learning never stops, especially in times of accelerated change.
One of my greatest prides in Zucchi was to lead the construction of a management model that combines tax planning, financial governance and data intelligence. This work helped to structure processes and strategic information that today support senior management, enabling faster, safer decisions that are aligned with the company's sustainable growth.
When I look to the future of Zucchi, I see an increasingly innovative company that values excellence in every detail and continues to connect people to the beauty of nature through unique products. I see an efficient operation, driven by data and technology, supported by a strong, human and engaged culture, exactly as we have built together so far.
Outside of the corporate environment, I am passionate about old cars, especially my 1980 Beetle, a relic that I cherish. Driving calmly, among colorful cars full of history, is something that brings me peace and joy. I participate in meetings with this family vibe, where I celebrate the simple, the authentic, values that I also apply to my leadership style: with balance, respect for roots and pride in each achievement built as a team.
