Growing competition supported by rising government investments of around USD 34 billion from 2024-2026
- Brazil aims to secure approximately BRL 180 billion (USD 34.03 billion) in private investments for new rail and highway projects between 2024 and 2026. The government plans to invest around BRL 80 billion (USD 15.12 billion) during the period of 2023 to 2026. However, it is anticipated that about 35 tenders will attract over twice the amount of private-sector investment.
- In 2023, congestion at Brazilian ports for ships loading grain cargoes has intensified due to substantial harvests and reduced water levels in the Amazon River. From January to November, the average waiting period surged to 15 days, compared to the previous average of nine days between 2018 and 2022, significantly surpassing the global average of five days for grain loadings in 2023. Brazil, being the world's largest grain exporter, accounted for 24% of global exports in 2022. Export volumes typically increase following the onset of the soybean harvest in March and during the summer maize harvest. Congestion tends to peak during periods of heightened export activity.
- Brazil is working toward modernizing and developing its roads, which would further strengthen long-haul trucking in the country. For instance, in 2023, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) approved a USD 480 million loan as part of the State of São Paulo Highway Investment Program to sustainably boost the competitiveness of the state’s production chains. The operation will boost production capacity and international and national integration by connecting less developed regions. Brazil is seeking investments worth USD 62 billion in highways by the end of 2026.
