Brazil/Relocating my business

Expert: - 12/7/2009


Question
I currently own and run a custom closet design and install business in central Florida.
I am looking to relocate in the Brasilia area.
My question is this.
What do you think the market is for such a business there and do you know of any interior designers or custom builders who would use such a product.

Thank you for your time

Brian

Answer
Most Brazilian houses and apartments don't have closets. People contract to have built-in "armarios" constructed, which can be of different qualities, designs and materials, ranging from very luxurious to quite simple. There should be many established businesses of this type existent in the Brasilia area.

I enjoy helping people get the most from their stay in Brazil. I'd be happy to hear from you.
