Country Industry Forecast - Political and Policy Analysis for the Brazilian Chemicals Materials and Foods Industry
Frost & Sullivan, Oct 2007, Pages: 38
The Brazilian chemicals and materials industry has earned its place in the spotlight by accounting for 3.1 percent of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) in 2006. In fact, Brazil’s is the largest chemicals and materials industry in Latin America and has won the support of the Government. Some favorable financial measures for this industry include restructuring of the tax collection mechanism and reduction in the import tax rates for capital goods. Brazil is the world leader in several areas of the agricultural sector - it has the biggest commercial herd and is the largest producer of soy, coffee, sugar, orange juice, as well as milk and poultry products. Since the vast agricultural land base and different climatic conditions are suitable for cultivating a range of agricultural commodities, Brazil’s food processing industry has a huge advantage. The agricultural sector is influenced by strong market orientation rather than government intervention. However, this feature makes it vulnerable to overvalued currency exchange rate, inadequate investments in infrastructure, and reduction of expenditure in research and development.
Brazil has emerged as one of the top ten economies in the world, with its manufacturing and services sectors being prominent in Latin America. The current political and policy environment plays a crucial role in the chemicals, materials, and foods (CMF) industry. Past Government policies have helped modernize the nation and supply essential commodities. The Brazilian chemicals industry association (ABIQUIM) has set forth certain important proposals to the Government and if they are implemented, the industry could witness an increase in investments and competitiveness.
