The Philippines has dominated the offshore outsourcing market for the last decade and has become the largest outsourcing market in the world. We’ve helped many clients find Philippine call centers over the years, but recently we’ve seen a significant shift with leading organizations seeking nearshore Central and Latin American contact center outsourcing locations.
For companies that are looking for high performing English and Spanish speaking outsource call center providers, we recommend the middle-market nearshore BPO companies. They provide great company culture and the increased customer experience scores allow these vendors to continuously outperform the larger BPOs. These locations are stable, safe, and mature outsourcing markets that can offer great value, often costing up to 50% less than comparable U.S outsourcing vendors. This article will discuss four Latin American countries: Peru, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay.
