Chinese companies urgently need to find new markets. Competition is intense at home, where the collapse of the real estate market has left consumers reluctant to spend. And escalating trade tensions have made it more difficult and costly<\/a> to sell things in the United States and Europe, long two of the largest destinations for Chinese exports.<\/p>\n

Latin America\u2019s largest economy, with a population of more than 200 million people, is a beacon for China\u2019s delivery and ride-hailing companies looking to export their ruthlessly low-cost business models. Chinese e-commerce giants also see promise in Brazil as they seek new buyers for a flood of products<\/a> after tariffs and other restrictions in the United States shut off their biggest export market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

TikTok Shop, facing scrutiny in the United States and Britain about its Chinese parent company, launched in Brazil in May.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
