I should've specified that:
II = Import taxes
ICMS = Taxes on merchandise and services
IPI = taxes on national and foreign products that are assembled from other products (Exempt if Product is build in the Zona Franca de Manaus - It's a free trade zone, there are a total of 8 (I think) free trade zones in Brazil)
PIS = taxes paid by anyone if they have the purchase to resell said product
Confins = taxes paid in order to attend social programs by the government

It's not so much that they are losing a great opportunity, it's our government that makes it impossible for them (and a whole bunch of other companies/industries).
