Cia de Bebidas das Americas (AmBev), Latin America's largest brewer, recently had to import beer cans into Brazil for the first time in its 125-year history after local supplies were exhausted. One of Brazil's top sugar producers, Acucar Guarani, left 10 percent of its crop sitting in the fields an extra 40 days because it couldn't acquire enough tires for its harvesters. "We tried to buy directly from China, but they didn't have tires for delivery either," says Jaime Stu-piello, agricultural director for Acucar Guarani. Elsewhere, a truck shortage is pushing up the costs of shipping goods from Brazil's industrial heartland to the rest of the country.
