Ironically, Brazil is one of the only countries on Earth that when one searches Google for “Amazon”, pictures of the lush river and rainforest appear rather than the ecommerce juggernaut.
These two phenomena have incredible stats: The Amazon ecosystem is a natural wonder and host to around 40,000 plant species, 1,300 bird species, 3,000 types of fish, 430 mammals, and a whopping 2.5 million different insects. Meanwhile, Amazon—the company—is one of the most valuable brands in the world and sells more than 350 million products. That’s a lot of products!
Brazil, the most populous Latin American country—and 6th largest in the world—represents an important and valuable growing market for online businesses. Driven by the impact of the pandemic, Reuters reported Brazilian ecommerce sales rose 56.8% year-over-year in the first five months of 2020, reaching 105.6 billion reais ($20.50 billion USD) in revenue.
With an estimated 55 million monthly visitors to Amazon Brazil, brands and agencies have a significant chance to make inroads with a rapidly expanding consumer base by putting their products front and center in Amazon searches in addition to leveraging Amazon 1st party data through Amazon DSP, both raising brand awareness and capturing sales.
