There's a lot of focus on Latin America being a fantastic export opportunity for UK companies. Of course, Brazil is the B in BRIC.
It's a big continent though! Brazil has been the 'biggie' in focus for a while now and HSBC conducted a 'Sao Paulo Thought Exchange' at the end of 2011. Visit https://www.businessthinking.hsbc.co.uk/thought-exchanges/sao-paulo for more information - HSBC really do produce good insights into export and as 'the world's local bank' you'd expect them to be the people to go to, for this type of information.
At the end of the day, however, we'd all like an expert to sit in our office and tell us exactly what's going on and what we can expect.
We've been following the activities of Gabriela Castro-Fontoura of Sunny Sky Solutions for a while and found the tweets, updates and information most useful. And Gabriela's company name alone makes us desperate to get out there!
Gabriela offers services that assist companies who wish to trade in South America - a continent with 300 million middle-class consumers. Could they be your next customers?
