Brazilian brands are standing out worldwide and are beginning to gain popularity among consumers in Arab countries. Saudi Arabia is already the fifth-largest destination for Brazilian chocolate exports, and other markets in the region, such as the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain, also have fans of national chocolate.

The limited-edition chocolate is for sale at Mission Chocolate’s online store. The brand’s founder, Arcelia Gallardo, launched a camel milk chocolate as part of its project to honor the communities composing Brazil’s ethnicity, starting with the Arabs.

A project from the Brazilian Confectionery Industry Association (Abicab) and the Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency (Apex-Brasil) is offering a year’s worth of one-on-one support to 20 enterprises starting out with foreign sales or would-be exporters. Registration opens on April 8.
