    What the numbers show

    Most of the channel sits outside the 10 largest metro areas: 73% of the restaurants in Brazil are elsewhere.

    Counted by restaurants, Brazil is the fifth largest market in this database.

    How the numbers are defined

    Restaurants
    Open restaurants (full and casual service, including venues listed simply as 'restaurant').

    How the shares are defined

    Selling to restaurants in Brazil

    Plan for owner-run venues

    Restaurants in Brazil are independent more often than elsewhere, so the decision sits with the owner on site: plan visit routes rather than head-office calls.

    Look past review counts

    Review histories are thinner for restaurants in Brazil than elsewhere, so rank leads on outlet type, area and chain status first.

    Plan regional coverage

    With 73% of the restaurants outside the largest metro areas, regional reps or distributor partners reach more of the channel than city teams alone.
