Uruguay - Distribution & Sales ChannelsUruguay - Distribution & Sales
All customary import channels exist in Uruguay — including agents, distributors, importers, trading companies, subsidiaries, and branches of foreign firms. Sales outlets are usually traditional storefronts and supermarkets. Very few discount general merchandisers operate in Uruguay.
Montevideo is Uruguay’s capital, largest city, and largest commercial center. Most companies base their head offices and distribution centers in Montevideo and its suburbs. Many international companies use the duty free port/airport regime and the free trade zones for their national and regional distribution centers.
