Time:2026-04-16 Publisher:Hazel Num:42

From April 14 to 16, 2026, the 30th edition of Intermodal South America was grandly held in São Paulo, Brazil. This year’s exhibition gathered more than 700 exhibitors and attracted over 50,000 professional visitors. Against the backdrop of deepening China-Brazil trade ties and the official launch of the China-Brazil Year of Culture, GLA Global Logistics Alliance made its maiden appearance in Brazil in the form of co-exhibiting, together with three member enterprises. Over the three-day exhibition, the GLA Co-Exhibition Group welcomed more than 500 professional visitors.

Connecting to South America's Logistics Market

The GLA Co-Exhibition Group brought together three established players in international logistics:

Qingdao Sea Po International Logistics Co.,Ltd., with extensive experience in the Latin American market. Viguima Logistics Internacional Ltda, a Brazilian logistics company with a global footprint and a strategic focus on the Asian market. TKX Serviço de Apoio ao Comércio Exterior, a Brazil-based freight forwarder focused on providing international logistics solutions for import and export operations.

With complementary service portfolios, the three companies created a synergistic booth presence that attracted steady visitor traffic.

By consolidating three distinct business lines under one booth, the group greatly streamlined business negotiations and strengthened collaboration intentions.

GLA Co-Exhibition Group: Strong Showings on Debut

As GLA's official debut at Intermodal South America, the participation achieved remarkable results. The booth attracted a continuous flow of professional visitors from Brazil and neighboring countries over the three days. The GLA Co-Exhibitors held in-depth and results-oriented business talks with numerous potential partners, covering ocean freight, air freight, customs clearance, warehousing, cross-border e-commerce logistics and other business sectors.

Many visiting enterprises expressed strong interest in the membership benefits of the GLA platform, as well as the 14th and 15th GLA Global Logistics Conferences. A steady stream of attendees scanned on-site QR codes to follow GLA and schedule follow-up connections. Participating member enterprises reported that the group exhibition not only helped them expand high-quality local resources in South America, but also delivered substantial gains in brand exposure and industry recognition.

GLA São Paulo Night: Networking & Collaboration 

To foster high-level industry dialogue, GLA hosted the GLA São Paulo Night Cocktail Party, bringing together over 50 business leaders and executives from China, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina and beyond.

The event was supported by Maritime Services FWD, founded in Mexico with more than 25 years of industry experience. It provides end-to-end logistics solutions covering ocean freight, air freight, customs clearance, overland transport and warehousing for import and export clients.

In a relaxed yet professional setting, guests exchanged insights on topics including mutual recognition of China-Brazil logistics standards, cross-border e-commerce supply chain optimization, and infrastructure investment opportunities across South America. As several guests remarked:“Deals begin at the booth, but partnerships are built over conversation. GLA understands logistics is ultimately about people.”

The event highlighted GLA's ability to build a global logistics ecosystem while maintaining a strong human touch.
