Four trends to watch in Latin America

Discover how a resurgent economy has reshaped consumer behavior and built value


It’s no secret — e-commerce has soared during the COVID-19 pandemic. But in few places has the surge so strongly impacted an economy as in Latin America. There, millions of people have taken to the internet for the first time. The result: Four trends your business can capitalize on now.

Enter a world of opportunity

An exciting Latin America has emerged from the global pandemic, reshaping consumer behavior forever. With millions of people shopping and banking online for the first time, the marketplace is similar to Southeast Asia during the previous decade, when expanding access to connectivity helped create one billion-dollar company after another.

Explore the four trends that reveal the region’s vitality in our e-book, Building Value in Latin America.

Latin America had to adapt during the pandemic. You couldn’t pay with cash, so companies had to reinvent themselves and provide new ways of collection. People switched from cash to digital wallets. This adaptability represents huge untapped opportunities for the market—like blockchain and digital currencies.
 

Ignacio Munoz De Cote, Head of Latin American Solutions, J.P. Morgan Payments

 

The digital trends to track

 

Technology indicators and smartphone adoption

Regional infrastructure continues to evolve rapidly in Latin America. Those who never had landlines now have smartphones with internet connectivity. Choosing markets with high smartphone penetration may be a winning strategy for your business.

E-commerce expansion

Latin America is now the second fastest growing market for e-commerce after Southeast Asia, with multinationals entering the region. Yet there are ample opportunities for those who understand local needs and customs, and those who can merge the brick-and-mortar world with online purchasing.

Venture capital investment

Venture capital investment can help drive and solidify a regional digital agenda and launch new success stories. As connectivity infrastructure comes online across Latin America, startups have more opportunity to flourish. In fact, startups raised more than $9 billion in the first six months of 2021. Coordinating across different markets remains challenging, however, due to different currency controls, politics and cultures.

Internet of things

The smart-home industry is starting to gain momentum in Latin America. Smart security and energy devices are still in early stages of adoption. While the trends are important, no company has yet emerged with a breakout connected device.

 

 

Multinationals generally enter through Brazil and Mexico and then expand across the region. Sometimes, they choose a smaller country to limit initial investment. Once they prove the model, they can expand to the bigger markets.
