Posthaste gains official “exporter” status from Brazilian customs authorities

Only around 12,000 companies are licensed to export from Brazil.  Posthaste is proud to be able to legally export and receive payment from foreign companies – our mission is to bring quality Brazilian products to buyers worldwide.

We are also dedicating our new export license to small companies worldwide that want to buy Brazilian products, but cannot fill the smallest 20’ container.  We welcome orders large and small – Posthaste is devoted to the task of breaking barriers for small companies wishing to do business in Brazil.  “We reject the idea that import /export in Brazil is only for Petrobras, CVRD, and so on.  Brazilian exports will grow to the extent that small companies are enabled to operate in this area,” notes Posthaste founder Zachary Mazur.
The new status confers the right to buy and sell products from companies outside of Brazil, and requires Posthaste to open its books to the Brazilian tax authorities on a regular basis.
