The Import Export Business in Latin America

Why create an Import Export Business?

Until recent years, the import export business has been looming across the globe where demand requires it. Where is that? The answer is simple: emerging economies. Think about it: all the countries considered to have emerging economies require all sorts of goods and services from different types of industries in order to fully bloom and provide growth for their population. Makes sense why the import export business has penetrated these markets; to replenish and provide new ways in which the population of growing economies can have access to all type of products.

Now, to enlighten all business entrepreneurs out there who wish to test the waters and seek for bigger and greater opportunities in foreign markets, we’ll focus on in one geographic region specifically: Latin America.

That’s right, you’ve heard it right. Latin America is one of the largest and fastest growing economic blocks in the world. The fact that Rio de Janeiro will be hosting the 2016 Olympics—the first time the games will be held in South America—is one indicator that it’s a region the world is taking more seriously. Most of the countries have been growing steadily for a few years now at rates as high as 9 percent a year.

Uruguay is praised worldwide for its careful management, unlike some EU countries. Colombia is making huge progress in terms of investment ratings, and many [South American] countries are signing trade agreements with EU countries. Panama has become a world renown logistic partner with the Panama Canal  and a ‘Swiss’ type financial hub in the region.

However, it is also one of the most complex and difficult economic blocks within which to conduct business.

Understanding individual country market requirements, market size, market pricing, economic trading partner relationships and cultural differences can mean the difference between success and failure.
