Brazil, due to its set of advantages, has attracted many of these companies, especially those interested in accessing the thriving Latin American market. However, guidance, knowledge and planning are necessary for a smooth and profitable landing in the Brazilian market. Why establish a subsidiary in Brazil? Among the points that place the country on the private investment route, the size of the consumer market stands out often among the 3, 5 or 10 largest markets in each segment, the international logistics network, access to specialized labor at cost competitiveness, and the abundance of natural resources.. The continental dimension, in this sense, combined with a friendly climate throughout the year and abundant nature, facilitates access to inputs and labor, while at the same time offers a heated domestic market with significant consumption power. These are characteristics that, added to the favorable macroeconomic context, which includes significant industrial capacity, monetary estability and potential for economic growth, place Brazil in a privileged position to receive foreign companies.
