I believe that the name of the only real company I know in your region that could supply this including all engineering and set-up is called Iberlas Sign & Design which you can find here:  http://www.iberplas.com.br

I am actually working on a large LCD video display project right now. My first piece of advice for a purchase like this would be to consider the lifetime cost of the product. Things to consider are: initial cost, warranty, maintenance and service, replacement parts, system compatability, and product replacement itself.  If you are just buying a single screen and you've never done so before, I'm not sure it is a good idea to look to direct importing. This is definitely a high risk big ticket item. You want a local company who will stand behind their reputation in the US.


Other aspects you'll need to consider are things like pixel, pitch, pixel form (2r,1g,1b?), module size, optimal viewing angle, working temp and humidity, controller system and software compatability, density, luminsecence, refresh rate, screen life, power consumption, IP rating, UL certification for power source...


I've found www.signindustry.com to be a good resource for general screen information, then have contacted engineers from from factories and other resources.


In closing, If you're only looking at one screen, import at your own risk.
