Footwear Exports Drive a New Geopolitical Dynamic Between the U.S. and Latin America Under the Trump Administration
The recent increases in Brazilian footwear exports to the United States and Latin America point to a significant recovery in trade relations in the region, fitting into a geopolitical context of reconfiguration under the presidency of Donald Trump, who resumed leadership of the U.S. in January 2025. This movement not only indicates economic recovery for the footwear sector but also reflects the geopolitical strategies of the United States to reaffirm its economic and political influence in Latin America, amid a competitive landscape with other global powers and internal changes in regional blocs across the American continent.
Historical and Geopolitical Context of Trade Relations Between the U.S. and Latin America
Historically, the United States has exerted a predominant influence over Latin America, whether through trade agreements, political interventions, or strategic cooperation. Over the past few decades, the economic dynamics of the region have undergone marked transformations, especially with the rise of blocs like Mercosur and the increasing presence of actors like China and the European Union. In the footwear sector, Brazil has always been a key player but has faced fluctuations caused by economic crises, currency variations, and protectionist policies adopted by different U.S. governments in the Americas.

The return of Donald Trump to the presidency of the U.S. marks a resumption of his protectionist agenda and reinforcement of bilateral trade ties, focusing on consolidating American influence in the region against global competitors. The appreciation of Brazilian footwear exports to the U.S. and to Latin American markets occurs in this environment of seeking a balance between revitalizing the local industry and opening up to strategic trade partnerships across the Americas.
Main Actors Involved in the New Phase of Footwear Exports in America
Brazil emerges as the leading Latin American exporter in the footwear sector, benefiting from internal policies that incentivize production and from the growing demand in the United States and neighboring countries. The Trump administration, for its part, has adopted measures to reduce trade barriers while reinforcing control mechanisms to protect strategic sectors in the U.S., promoting specific agreements that favor partners considered geopolitically aligned in the Americas.
Additionally, other Latin American countries, such as Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina, also play relevant roles, either as competitors or as consumer markets. Multilateral organizations like the Organization of American States (OAS) and regional blocs like Mercosur are indirect actors, influencing the regulatory and diplomatic environment that directly impacts exports and trade strategies across the Americas.
