The movement of Brazilian companies seeking for new markets abroad has increased in the latest years. Some companies stand out by selling products with aggregate value and their brand represent a relevant competitive force. Before making this move, these enterprises need to adopt a marketing strategy with a brand focus in the internationalization process. This study is looking for verifying the international marketing strategy adopted by two Brazilian companies and their respective products - Guaraná Antarctica and the beers Xingu and Palma Louca. This work also seeks to identify the relevance of brand origin effect in the search of Brazilian products by some foreign consumers. This descriptive job based on case studies, intended to evaluate the launch of genuine Brazilian products in external markets, in light of the existing literature. The case studies were based on documents and detailed interviews with companies’ executives and with their distributors/ importers. A survey through a questionnaire has been also conducted with foreign students living in Brazil, to evaluate their perceptions in relation to products made in Brazil. The results show that brand management permits the differentiation of company in the international market. Nevertheless, the major challenge in the internationalization process is still the right choice of the entering way in each new market. In the case of Guaraná Antarctica, the brand origin effect was positive for this product, suggesting a greater inclination for consumption by the fact that it is a typical Brazilian product.
