Looking for Investment Opportunities in Brazil in 2025?

Today, BrazilDesk will share some interesting insights about the BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) market in Brazil.

We’ll organize valuable information so you can fully understand what to expect from this market in the coming years.

So, What Is BPO and Where Does Brazil Fit In?

BPO stands for Business Process Outsourcing, which basically means outsourcing services to an external company. These services include customer support (call center), technical support (help desk), human resources, accounting, and much more.

This type of service aims to decentralize all operations of a company and outsource them to more qualified companies or to reduce costs. Brazilian BPO companies have become an attractive place for international companies to outsource their services. This is due to:

  • It’s a large country with a vast workforce and bilingual professionals;
  • Lower hiring costs compared to companies in Europe and North America;
  • Time zones compatible with North America, South America, and Europe;
  • Global expansion: companies growing in Latin America prefer local people to handle native users and customers.

Tips for Outsourcing Services in Brazil

  1. Look for companies that focus on delivering results aligned with your expectations. Do you prefer a small company dedicated to your business with close communication, functioning almost as an extension of your team? Or would you rather work with a large company with many employees and full infrastructure for more complex operations?
  2. Think long-term: Consider building a long-term partnership with a company that will “marry” your business and become an adapted version of it in Brazil. There’s nothing better than having trusted representatives in specific regions.
  3. Look for incentives: Research what the Brazilian government offers in terms of benefits to foreign companies looking to establish themselves in Brazil.
