Brazil: Exporter Guide
Brazil is finally emerging from the worst economic crisis in its history and now is starting to recover. In 2016, imports of food and beverage products were impacted by the recession but in 2017 trade is picking up again, as major economic indicators that directly affect consumption are starting to shift. Comparing January-October 2017 with the same period of the previous year, exports of intermediate products and consumer-oriented products from the United States to Brazil expanded, by 3.6 and 12.5 percent, respectively. The ATO believes there is room for U.S. exporters to gain market share in the years to come.
