Brazil continues to present opportunities for U.S. exporters of intermediate products. High performance ingredients that add value to products present good market potential as trends such as health and wellness expand in the country. Brazilian consumers are increasingly moving towards a healthier lifestyle.  Also, an increasing number of consumers are giving more importance to transparency from manufacturers about the ingredients used in their products.  They are interested in how the product is manufactured, and they are considering products with cleaner labels with nutritional ingredients described in simple terminology. There is also a growing demand for on-the-go healthy products and also products fortified in supplements, nutrients, and vitamins.
