Almost one thousand micro and small companies from Brazil export to Africa and the Middle East
Last year, 280 new small companies started selling to both regions. They are currently 939 companies, and represent 27% of those exporting to the region. The micro and small companies have improved their products, learnt to deal with exchange rates and export procedures, thus having revenues of US$ 1.7 billion in foreign trade last year, US$ 400 million over the 2002 figure.
