Brazil, the largest country in all South America, has become one of the best tourist destinations on the continent in the last few years. The country offers a great variety of beaches, rivers, forests, mountains… along with endless opportunities of culture and leisure in the main cities. It also has gained a great reputation for their gastronomy. Within the great offer of Brazil, there are certain places that cannot be missed:

The city of Manaus, which can be accessed both by air and by river for adventurous people, can be a key spot from which to visit all the nature that the jungle offers: Rivers (e.g. Amazonas, rio negro…) and rough mountain peaks (e.g. Pico da Neblina, Pico 31 de Março)

Guillermo López Lázaro, operations director of Eurodistribution comments: “One of the most strategic decisions for Eurodistribution has been the opening of the Brazilian BSP, one of the largest markets in America. And it has a very important potential for us. Many of our customers asked us to access this market and with the opening of BSP we are responding to all of them.
