The objective of ABIHPEC’s Foreign Trade (Comex) unit is to contribute to increasing the competitiveness of the Brazilian CTF industry by developing the international capacity and increasing the international trade flow for companies in the sector.
Among our main activities, we could highlight our representation of sector interests at national and international forums, by developing clear positions for Brazil on the international market through reducing the obstacles to international trade for the CTF sector.
These activities include easing the import tax requirements for the production chain related to ingredients and raw materials, and representing the sector in international agreement discussions.
Data are compiled from the Market Intelligence and the Statistics areas and form the basis for strategic planning. They are made available to member companies to assist analysis of the results achieved by ABIHPEC managed projects.
The area is also responsible for planning and managing the Beautycare Brazil project.
Beautycare Brazil Project
Since 2001, this project has been helping CTF sector companies to expand internationally. Beautycare Brazil is an export SP (Sectional Project) created and managed by ABIHPEC (Brazilian Association of the Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Industry) in partnership with Apex-Brasil (Brazilian Agency for the Promotion of Exports and Investments).
