Chinese Multinational Xiaomi Reveals Plans to Build Its First Factory in Brazil Aiming to Reduce Logistics and Tariff Costs, Offering More Competitive Prices for Consumers.
That Xiaomi has become popular among Brazilians is no news. With products offering excellent value for money, the Chinese multinational has become one of Samsung’s main competitors in Brazil. To cater to the large audience it has captured, the company is considering the possibility of establishing a Xiaomi factory in Brazil, aiming to expand its national operations. This information was shared by Luciano Barbosa, head of operations for the company in the country.
Advantages of a Xiaomi Factory in Brazil
Currently, all Xiaomi products available in Brazil are imported. Establishing a local production unit would not only reduce logistics and tariff costs but also result in more competitive prices for Brazilian consumers. Barbosa revealed that this initiative is being seriously considered by the company.
“We are studying various product lines for local production, but we need to understand the preferences of Brazilian consumers, who tend to be more conservative regarding product diversity,” he explained. The final decision on the factory’s installation will be based on a detailed market analysis.
