Latin America

Latin America is a global gateway to the comprehensive brand deployment services offered by Schawk. We are intimately familiar with the complexity of marketing a brand across the numerous countries in Latin America and are experienced at creating packaging supply chain workflows that maximize brand integrity and accelerate speed to market while achieving the highest possible levels of efficiency.

Schawk entered the Latin American market in 1997 when it opened a facility in Queretaro, Mexico, the first location outside of the United States and Canada for Schawk. In January 2011 we expanded our operations with the launching of Schawk do Brasil located in São Paulo. On any given day, Schawk's Latin American operations supply graphic deliverables to 15+ countries, including Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Venezuela, Colombia, Guatemala, Costa Rica and Panama.

Our services include creative and adaptive design, production artwork, prepress, digital proofing, digital flexographic platemaking and print quality management. In addition we support our global clients with translation, design localization and on-site project management services for products entering this vital region, as well as services related to achieving regulatory compliance. The challenge for consumer products companies and retailers in this market is to achieve brand consistency across printers at the level of quality to which brand owners are accustomed, at a cost that delivers true value.

Our key clients in this region include some of the world’s largest diversified consumer products companies, cereal makers, beauty conglomerates, snackfood manufacturers, one of Latin America’s largest snackfood companies and several leading packaging printers.
