The firm started manufacturing clothes in Brazil earlier this year, its first production center outside China. "The idea is that by 2026 Brazil will be ready to serve Latin America," Magalhaes told reporters on Wednesday at an event at Shein's Sao Paulo office. She did not specify which Latin American countries Shein could ship products to from Brazil. Brazil is one of its five main markets and the largest in Latin America, the company said. In addition to Brazil, the company started manufacturing in Turkey this year and plans to build a factory in Mexico.
