Chinese Enterprises Expanding into Brazil: Office Solutions Available Within 24 Hours
For Chinese enterprises looking to establish a presence in Brazil, take São Paulo as an example: Faria Lima is the top choice for office locations, with a rental rate of R$297.51 per square meter per month, while Villa Olimpia stands at R$147.46 per square meter per month.
Taking Villa Olimpia as a case in point, based on local fit-out and procurement costs (ranging from R$3,300 to R$4,280 per square meter) and the standard of 7 square meters of space per employee, the comprehensive cost per workstation in a traditional office building exceeds R$2,000 per month. Moreover, the fit-out process typically takes 3 to 6 months, and an additional cost is incurred for restoring the premises to their original condition upon lease termination.
