How Buk Scales in Brazil with VBR Brasil’s Support in Accounting and Tax Outsourcing

Buk, the Chilean startup and one of the fastest-growing HR technology companies in Latin America, has VBR Brasil as a strategic partner to support its local operation. The partnership includes accounting, tax, and payroll outsourcing, providing essential support for a company accelerating in one of the most complex markets in the world.

Buk: Accelerated Growth and Presence in Five Countries

Buk is a People Management platform that automates HR routines, processes, and people management, while centralizing multi-country operations in a single environment. Originally from Chile, the company currently operates in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and Peru.

Its growth was recently recognized by Latinmetrics, which included Buk among the 30 Latin American companies that have received the most Venture Capital investment, with US$ 50 million raised. With this level of expansion, structuring the local operation with security and predictability becomes essential.

Why Accounting and Tax Outsourcing Is Critical During Expansion

Brazil’s regulatory environment is widely recognized as complex: ancillary obligations, tax calculations, labor routines, and accounting requirements demand a robust technical structure and constant updates.

For international companies in a growth stage, outsourcing these routines to a specialized partner reduces risks, frees the internal team to focus on the core business, and ensures compliance from the beginning of the operation, without the costs and learning curve of building an in-house structure.

VBR Brasil: The Local Partner Connected Through Praxity

One relevant point in this partnership is worth highlighting: Buk came to VBR through Praxity, the global alliance of independent audit, tax, and consulting firms of which VBR has been a member since 2018. Praxity brings together more than 975 offices in over 120 countries.

This connection is one of the most concrete ways to show how VBR’s presence in a global network translates into real results for local clients. International companies arriving in Brazil find in VBR a technically qualified partner, referred by partner firms that already know the firm’s delivery standards.
