This hands-on guide teaches executives of small and medium-size U.S. companies how to establish and maintain profitable business in Mexico, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. Unlike the "old" Latin America, today's Latin America is both readily accessible to smaller North American companies and is being transformed into a bustling business environment. However, for those without a native, in-depth understanding of the emerging changes within today's Latin American marketplace and a grasp of the cultural implications at hand, doing business in Latin America can still be challenging for smaller U.S. exporters and importers. Doing Business in the New Latin America: Keys to Profit in America's Next-Door Markets, Second Edition serves as an insider's travel guide and trader's manual for understanding the region's market environment and best export sales opportunities in each of its countries. It lays the groundwork for finding and developing ideal prospects while avoiding pitfalls and foreigners' faux pas. Part I familiarizes readers with Latin America in general, profiling its nations from a business perspective; Part II explains how Latin American business attitudes developed from a historical perspective. The third section of the text focuses on the all-important art of making—and keeping—the deal.

When the first edition of Doing Business with Latin America was published, the region was growing and the possibilities were endless. However, the recent global economic slowdown has hit Latin America, too, and so a second edition was needed in order to help British SMEs understand this new context and maximise their opportunities for success in more challenging times. In this fully revised second edition, Gabriela Castro-Fontoura, a native Latin America with wide experience in the UK, shares in a simple and friendly manner, what every UK SME needs to know about doing business with Latin America: the geography and the people of a fascinating continent; the exciting range of opportunities, as well as honestly exposing the barriers and how to handle them. From business etiquette to import barriers, from currency issues to how to organise a market visit, Gabriela explores the wealth of information that is out there, interviewing key business owners and experts, and translating this into a thoroughly researched yet very user-friendly book, with British efficiency and Latin American charm! The second edition addresses questions such as: How has Latin America changed in the last three years? How do you deal with a less buoyant region? Where are the opportunities now? Why is Latin America still a region worth considering in your export strategy? How do you go about doing business in this region today? A world of possibilities opens up for UK SMEs that know where to look. This book aims to be their first window into Latin America.
