Thanks for the info. It is really interesting to see how the trade between Brazil and United States has been strengthened. In December 2010, Integration Point sponsored the webcast “Increasing Trade between Brazil and the United States” with Celia Feldpausch, Vice President Central and South America for Mondial Trade Compliance Services and Solutions, Inc. This webcast was done in Portuguese to help those in Brazil looking to export to the US understand the process and it is available for viewing at https://integrationpoint.webex.com/integrationpoint/lsr.php?AT=pb&SP=EC&rID=3027412&rKey=aecbc2127ba48fd5&SourceID=b
