S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 The executives currently on a business trip to North Africa led by the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/strong> are enthused about the first stop along the way. In Amman, Jordan, cosmetics and livestock exporters had promising talks on Tuesday (10).<\/p>\n

In the morning, Brazilian and Jordanian executives convened at the offices of the Jordan Chamber of Commerce, which is supporting the mission. A brief presentation was followed by B2B sessions involving local distributors and importers and the Brazilian execs. \u201cThe local media was there as well, and they helped spread awareness of Brazilian products,\u201d said Arab Chamber International Business executive Fernanda Baltazar.<\/p>\n

Although it\u2019s active in a number of industries, MF Trading is on the mission and in Jordan looking to sell livestock. The first day was positive, said its international business manager Adriano Alves, who spoke with two buyers who already buy cattle from Brazil.<\/p>\n

After the event, according to Alves, they visited an importers\u2019 farm. \u201cThe conversation was a very productive one. We will even sit down to talk over dinner, and maybe start working on a draft contract,\u201d he told ANBA over the phone.<\/p>\n

The company is working on a project with a group of farmers in Maranh\u00e3o, Brazil to ship livestock via the Port of Itaqui, in the state\u2019s capital S\u00e3o Lu\u00eds. \u201cThis group resells to major industry players who ship product abroad. Now, we\u2019ll get those farmers direct access to the international market,\u201d he explained, adding that the emphasis is on Arab markets.<\/p>\n

Caio Ferreira, the operations manager with cosmetics company Agilise Cosm\u00e9ticos, was also optimistic about the first day of meetings. The company, which specializes in hair salon products, already sells to Arab countries including the United Arab Emirates and Iraq, and it plans on increasing its foothold in the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is being great. We visited local distributors, we went to their offices. Now, we\u2019ll have more meetings and follow through with our talks,\u201d he told ANBA, also over the phone. According to him, some Jordanian distributors work with product from Agilise\u2019s competitors, but this doesn\u2019t mean they can\u2019t also supply his. \u201cThe market is big enough for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Ferreira, 70% to 80% of Agilise\u2019s exports go to Arab countries. After Jordan, the company will travel along with the Arab Chamber mission to Egypt \u2013 where items by Agilise are not available yet \u2013 and then Tunisia. \u201cWe do not sell much to Tunisia. The intention is to expand,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday (11), the executives will sit down for meetings again, with ongoing support from Arab Brazilian Chamber and Jordan Chamber staff. After that, new companies will join in for the next leg of the trip: \u201cIn Egypt, we\u2019ll have seven companies,\u201d said Fernanda of the Arab Brazilian Chamber. The North Africa Mission will also travel to Tunisia and Mauritania.<\/p>\n
