Located in the Southeast region of Brazil, with 42 million inhabitants, the state of São Paulo is the largest economic and industrial hub in the whole Southern Hemisphere. São Paulo generates over 33% of Brazil's GDP - a volume bigger than countries like Argentina, Indonesia, Netherlands and Turkey - and 43% of the country's services. With 20 million inhabitants, the metropolitan region of São Paulo is the 3rd largest urban cluster in the world and the industrial and commercial centre of Brazil.
São Paulo is the headquarters of over 60% of the multinationals operating in Brazil and is the venue for 75% of all the trade fairs organized in the country. Regarding infrastructures, São Paulo is home to the Port of Santos, the biggest container terminal in Latin America, ca. 60 big shopping centers that welcome over 90M visitors/month and 59 streets with specialized commerce.
Aerospace and defence industry, agribusiness, food, automotive, green economy, machinery and equipment, real estate, oil & natural gas, health and life sciences, financial services and IT are some of the strategic business sectors with a strong potential for development.
This moment is expected to be the turning point for Brazil. With the foreseeable ending of the economic shocks of 2015 and 2016, and assisted by a weaker currency, the recovery of the economic growth should be noticed already in 2017. The necessary resolution of the politically uncertain scenario, together with the predictable further opening of the market and international trade – Brazil registers values far below in this indicator when compared to its Latin American pairs –, are expected to boost the Brazilian economic growth, which will favour the companies who decide to invest in the Brazilian market now.
Mr. Paulo Portas, Vice-President of the Portuguese Chamber of Commerce and Industry, will be accompanying and monitoring the trade mission. Mr. Paulo Portas has been a leading figure of Portuguese politics, having held positions such as Deputy Prime Minister (2013-2015), Minister of Foreign Affairs (2011-2013) and Defence Minister (2002-2005) in several constitutional Governments.
