Coverage includes - Latin American Trade Bi-Annual
Brazil, with its rapidly expanding economy, and Colombia, which could reap multiple benefits from a free trade agreement with the United States, offer enormous potential to shippers of imported and exported goods.
Characterized by large and well-developed agricultural, mining, manufacturing, and service sectors, Brazil's economy outweighs that of all other South American countries. And Brazil is expanding its presence in world markets.
Latin America presents advantages, disadvantages to traditional sourcing venues Most U.S. companies automatically think of China, Southeast Asia, and India when the subject of the sourcing of products comes up. But Latin America presents an interesting alternative to Asia and is a region American companies increasingly look for for product sourcing.
Deciding between Asia and Latin America as a sourcing venue is not an apples-to-apples comparison, nor, for that matter, necessarily an either/or alternative. Instead, different companies from different industries are likely to be attracted to either region for reasons particular to their own businesses.
Puerto Rico Offer Dynamic Trade Opportunities Unique to the Caribbean
American Hotel Register Co., the world’s largest supplier to the hotel industry, offers a good example of a company that exports to and supplies Caribbean nations like Puerto Rico with much needed goods.
While the tourist industry plays a lesser role here than at other Caribbean nations, companies like American Hotel Register do a good business in Puerto Rico and are charged with getting the best price for goods for its customers. Most are major hotel chains. Consequently, the company sources worldwide for its products.
Sound economic policies shielded the country from the worst of the global recession while continuing infrastructure investments boost the economy.
Peru is a comer among South American economies. While usually not spoken of in the same breath as South American powerhouses like Brazil, Venezuela, and Colombia, Peru is on track to register strong economic growth this year, according to a report recently released by Business Monitor International.
