Emergency Client Seminar: US Tariffs Threaten the Future of Brazilian Agribusiness

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 is facing one of its biggest challenges in 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 development, we are convening an exclusive seminar as a “fire drill” for our clients. This event will bring together our top legal minds from the United States, alongside our team’s deep local knowledge of the Brazilian agribusiness sector. We will investigate, explain, identify, and discuss practical steps to mitigate the impact of these tariffs on your business.

This seminar will also focus on 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 situation, combining the highest calibre of US legal knowledge and an unparalleled understanding of the Brazilian agribusiness landscape.

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