| Lowering your cost base for increased competitiveness |
 |
Labor costs often represent the largest percentage of a company’s monthly expenses. Outsourcing can make up to a 50% difference in labor costs. Buenos Aires (Argentina), São Paolo (Brazil) and Santiago (Chile) offer a vast pool of qualified personnel at very competitive prices, in addition to bringing you savings on telephone, electricity and rental overheads. Your savings can then be reinvested back into other projects to further strengthen your company. |

With 12 million inhabitants in and around the capital, Buenos Aires is one of the largest cities in South America, boasting an excellent technological infrastructure. Buenos Aires is in the top 5 of the world’s cheapest cities (Mercer, Cost of Living, 2004), and consequently wages are among the most competitive in South America. Argentina also has the most bilingual speakers in South America. With many citizens holding EU passports and speaking a number of languages, Buenos Aires is very much a Euro-centric country and is often described as the most European city outside Europe. |
