ModusLink Global Solutions, Inc. (MLNK) Forges Collaborative Agreement with PagBrasil, Expands e-Commerce Support to Brazil

ModusLink Global Solutions has announced a collaboration with PagBrasil to provide e-commerce transaction support in Brazil. Payment options and tax issues are complex in that country, but with this new agreement ModusLink will be able to provide its e-commerce customers with easy access to one of the fastest growing markets in the world.

As indicated in a recent report from Forrester Research, e-commerce in Brazil will surpass $12 billion this year. Companies desiring to conduct consumer-facing business in Brazil must be able to navigate the country’s abundant and unique payment options for goods and services, which include local credit cards, installment plans, cash deposits, and payment programs that are managed by national banks. ModusLink will be able to seamlessly integrate PagBrasil’s payment support services into clients’ existing e-commerce sites and offer product fulfillment and shipping services from any of ModusLink’s worldwide facilities.

A good fit for both companies, this strategic agreement between ModusLink and PagBrasil will allow ModusLink’s clients to confidently grow their online businesses with the backing of the company’s 15 years of experience in processing complex payment transactions. PagBrasil stands to benefit from the global scope of ModusLink’s operations and the opportunity to support its vast and growing client roster.

ModusLink’s clients depend on the company’s proven track record of providing secure, reliable online shopping sites that conform to each client’s unique brand. It was PagBrasil’s proven, robust IT infrastructure that attracted ModusLink, and that infrastructure will allow the company to continue surpassing customer expectations for a superb online marketplace. This added ability to speedily serve the major commercial region of Brazil is a prime opportunity for ModusLink’s clients.

In addition to expanding its services to Brazil, ModusLink currently manages all aspects of multilingual and multicurrency e-commerce solutions for clients in North America, Europe, and the Asia/Pacific region.

ModusLink Global Solutions provides comprehensive supply chain and logistics services to improve revenue, cost, sustainability, and customer experience objectives for its clients. The company serves the world’s leading consumer electronics, communications, computing, medical device, software, luxury goods, and retail companies. ModusLink’s operating infrastructure supports more than $80 billion of its clients’ revenue each year and manages around 470 million product shipments through more than 30 sites in 15 countries throughout North America, Europe, and the Asia/Pacific region.
