Yamato Corporation wants to enter the Brazilian market by selling electronic scales. To be successful, they must understand Brazilian business culture which values personal relationships over transactions. Yamato should establish local partnerships and visit Brazil in person to build trust. Additionally, Yamato needs to meet Brazil's regulatory standards for imported goods and consider establishing local production to avoid import duties and taxes of up to 26%. Attending industry trade shows in 2009 would help Yamato connect with potential customers in Brazil's important beef and poultry industries.
