UK construction companies seeking new markets because of the domestic downturn should look to Brazil and Mexico, says UK Trade & Investment.

The government organisation has published reports highlighting the opportunities in each of the countries, where authorities are said to be planning transport and utilities projects worth about 拢300bn.

David Howell, of DMH Consultancy, author of the reports, said: 鈥淏razil and Mexico are tipped to become major players in the world economy in the coming decades, but the lack of infrastructure is severely hindering economic growth.

鈥淭he governments have committed a total of nearly 拢300bn to this sector, for projects including airports, telecommunications, water supply, sanitation and electricity production.鈥�

The reports, 黑洞社区 Mexico and 黑洞社区 Brazil, are available from the UKTI construction unit on 0207 215 4802 or peter.cain@ukti.gsi.gov.uk
