BRAZILIAN-AMERICAN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CELEBRATES BACCF 2018 EXCELLENCE AWARD
CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD FOR AVIANCA BRASIL, JOSE EFROMOVICH

 

 
MIAMI, May 2018 – The Brazilian American Chamber of Commerce of Florida (BACCF) celebrating its 37th Anniversary, has awarded the 2018 Annual BACCF Excellence Award to Jose Efromovich, CEO of Avianca Brazil.
 
Jose Efromovich graduated as a civil engineer from the Mackenzie Engineering School of São Paulo, Brazil and started his career as a field engineer at INCA, a construction and real estate company.
 
Since 1977 he has been heading entrepreneurial business activities in the areas of medical diagnostics, industrial inspection and oil services. In 1998 these evolved to include aviation and subsequently oil exploration. Having successfully developed a number of companies in different industries they are now combined under a family fund which supports and controls the operation of the individual businesses. 
 
Today, the fund’s largest investments are in commercial aviation. They include Avianca Brazil, Avianca Holdings and a number of other regional airlines in Latin America.  In addition to commercial aviation, the fund owns companies that provide helicopter operations, ground transportation, aircraft maintenance and private jet sales and services. The fund has an international footprint with approximately 30,000 employees.
 
Jose has been a board member of Avianca Holdings since 2005 and is currently Chairman of the Board of Avianca Brazil
 
The Brazilian-American Chamber of Commerce of Florida, Inc. (BACCF) is an independent, non-profit business organization.  As a non-governmental association, the Chamber is supported primarily by membership dues and income from fund-raising events.  The BACCF was founded in 1981 and is proud to be celebrating its 35th Anniversary. The Chamber’s main objective is to forge closer ties between the business communities of Brazil and Florida by assisting companies and business people seeking ways to penetrate or invest successfully in the Brazilian and US Markets.  Since its founding, the Chamber has grown from a few companies to over 300 members, ranging from multinationals to individuals involved in Brazil-US relations.
