In all, the country shipped out 1,016,265 60-kg bags to the Arab market, with USD 147.4 million in revenues, a drop of 4.35% in the same comparison. The volume meant a 4% share in Brazil\u2019s total exports. The data was shown this Wednesday (10) by the Brazilian Coffee Exporters Council (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cecafe.com.br\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CECAF\u00c9<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The data shows a recovery in exports. Year-to-date until August, exports to the Arab countries had been in decline. From January to August, the country shipped out 781,027 bags, down 2% over 2017\u2019s first eight months.<\/p>\n<p>Among the top Arab importers of Brazilian coffee are Saudi Arabia, with 13,299 bags in September, with revenues at USD 2.22 million in the month; and the United Arab Emirates, with 8,084 bags, with USD 1.2 million in revenues.<\/p>\n<p>In September, Brazil exported 3.02 million coffee bags. In this figure are included green, instant, roasted and ground coffee. In volume, exports rose 24% over September of 2017, when the country exported 2.4 million bags. Revenues in the month reached USD 410.3 million, up 0.7% over September of last year.<\/p>\n<p>From January to September of 2018, the country exported 23.6 million bags, a 7.3% hike in comparison to the same period of last year. In this case, revenues declined 6% to USD 3.5 billion. \u201cWe had a good volume of coffee exports. However, we believe we could have shipped out 10% to 15% more if not for the issues of lack of containers and space in vessels,\u201d said Nelson Carvalhaes, CECAF\u00c9\u2019s president, in a statement by the council. In this regard, CECAF\u00c9 states that it has been in contact with the National Agency for Waterway Transportation (ANTAQ), seeking to normalize the country\u2019s coffee outflow.<\/p>\n<p>The exports of the Arabica variety rose 14.9% in the month over September of 2017, accounting for 81% of total exports (2.4 million bags). Meanwhile, exports of the Robusta variety surged 1091.6% and reached a 9.7% share of the month\u2019s exports (291,600 bags). Year-to-date until September, exports of the Robusta variety, also called Conilon, had increased 782.6%. And exports of instant coffee remained the same, with a share of 9.3% of total exports (280,300 bags).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by S\u00e9rgio Kakitani <\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-202481\">Marcelo Camargo\/Ag\u00eancia Brasil<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brazil shipped out over 1 million bags to the Arab market from January to September.
