Emergency Client Seminar | Immediate Action Required: US Tariffs Threaten the Future of Brazilian Agribusiness

Share

With the United States imposing new tariffs of up to 50% on key Brazilian agribusiness products—including orange juice, beef, coffee, pulp, and ethanol—Brazil now faces one of the most critical challenges in its recent foreign trade history. Estimated losses are projected to exceed USD 5.8 billion as early as 2025, and the consequences could be severe and long-lasting unless urgent legal and strategic measures are adopted.

In response to this unprecedented development, we are convening an exclusive emergency seminar designed as a ‘fire drill’ for our clients. This event will bring together our top legal experts from the United States, alongside our team with deep local knowledge of the Brazilian agribusiness sector. We will investigate, explain, identify, and discuss practical steps to mitigate the potentially disastrous impact of these tariffs on your business.

A key focus will also be the role of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), whose oversight of foreign investments may directly affect the operations and exports of Brazilian agribusinesses in the US market.

We are uniquely positioned to guide you through this crisis, as the only firm with both the highest calibre of US legal expertise and an unparalleled understanding of the Brazilian agribusiness landscape.

Your participation is essential. Join us to ensure your business is prepared to respond effectively to this unprecedented threat.
