Brazil continues to host a diverse array of regional trade fairs, business summits, and industrial exhibitions across multiple sectors.

In late September, economic activity highlighted both specialized exports and large-scale industrial events. In Ceará, an ApexBrasil event in Fortaleza focused on the honey and propolis sector, generating US$ 10.25 million in business prospects. Regional entrepreneurship was further supported by fairs such as Fenecan, Fama Fair, and Fenacce.

Major industrial exhibitions also emerged in the São Paulo region. The 26th Expo de Transportes in São Bernardo, also known as the ‘Feira dos Cegonheiros’, is currently underway with the goal of facilitating fleet renewal. Organized by Sinaceg, the event expects to attract 96,000 visitors and generate approximately R$ 660 million in business. Industry representatives are negotiating with the federal government for a R$ 1.5 billion credit line to finance up to 1,000 car carrier trucks and implements. Major brands such as DAF, Iveco, Mercedes-Benz, Scania, Volvo, and Volkswagen are showcasing heavy-duty solutions, with some manufacturers offering discounts of up to 10%.

In related automotive industry developments, Mercedes-Benz was awarded the 2026 Highest Resale Value Seal for commercial vehicles in Brazil. The company secured top honors in both the cargo utility and truck segments, with the Sprinter 417 recording a minimal depreciation of only 5.7%. Scania led in the most categories for trucks, while Iveco won in the light vehicle category. Awards also included specific categories for electrified commercial vehicles.

Simultaneously, the 29th São Paulo Boat Show showcased over 160 vessels, including luxury yachts valued at over R$ 7 million.
