> do you guys have imported american cheeses available
Not really. Maybe in special cheese shops but not in the major supermarkets. It's mostly British cheese here anyway, there is a massive variety in British cheeses.

It depends. A lot of cheeses come pre-packaged and processed. There's a big variety of low-quality cheeses. Quality cheeses are harder to come by, though. There might be a whole aisle devoted to shredded cheddar, but only five containers of brie in the entire store.
Also, we rename some cheeses. We call Emmental cheese 'Swiss Cheese"

I call all cheese from Switzerland 'Swiss Cheese'.
Pretty much this, though. You'll find the aisle of bagged processed cheeses, then usually a smaller area with the fancy cheese. Within the area for quality / import cheese, you can find a variety of cheeses, most of them with Americanized names; for example, most blue cheeses are just called blue cheese, lol.
