As the 5th largest country in the world, the market has a rapidly developing economy providing a variety of opportunities for UK companies in all sectors.
In the past decade Brazil has shown solid economic stability with more than 35 million Brazilians being lifted out of poverty into the emerging middle class.

With our strong and historic trading relationship with Brazil, the last 4 years has seen UK exports grow by 20% reaching £2.5 billion in 2013; as such it is the UK’s largest trading partner in Latin America.

Discover more about the huge potential of this high-growth market and how your business could maximise on the opportunities by joining us for an evening seminar, on Wednesday 13 January at the Novotel East Midlands, Nottingham
