Portuguese term (edited): com atuação em toda América Latina

which conducts business throughout Latin America

"Present/working/active *with* business" is substandard English and "has a presence" sounds too passive.

If you know the context well enough to know that the claim is truthful, "has branches throughout Latin America" would sound even more natural in English.

Boa sorte.

agree Kathy Ann Mutz : The answers are all more or less correct, but "conducts business" is the most natural sounding option.
