Business matchmaking rounds connected 24 Brazilian suppliers with 10 importers from key Latin American markets

The Buyer Project – Suppliers edition, held on August 4 and 5 during FIMMA Brasil 2025 in Bento Gonçalves (Rio Grande do Sul), generated US$ 4.86 million in immediate deals and projected business for the next 12 months. The initiative has proven to be a strategic tool for strengthening the positioning and international presence of the Brazilian furniture supply chain.

Organized by ABIMÓVEL (Brazilian Furniture Manufacturers Association) in partnership with ApexBrasil (Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency), under the suppliers’ vertical (components, machinery, and inputs) of the Brazilian Furniture Project, the action brought together 24 Brazilian companies and 10 international buyers from Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, the Dominican Republic, and Uruguay.

In total, 250 business meetings were held, resulting in 160 commercial contacts, of which 91% were new connections for the Brazilian participants.
