Saudi Arabia is the fourth leading destination of chicken produced in Brazil. Shipments to Arab countries and elsewhere were lower, though.
Countries including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Yemen and Oman stepped up their chicken meat imports from Brazil in January, even though the industry’s overall imports slid.
Poultry exports from Brazil dropped 28% to Saudis and 8% to the United Arab Emirates last September. But sales to Egypt and Bahrain soared.
Exports daily average stood 10.5% above the one registered in October’s first week, according to the Ministry of Industry, Foreign Trade and Services (MDIC).
