The total volume shipped to the Arab country was 465,000 pairs, with a revenue of more than USD 2.8 million, which represents around 3% of the total exports by Brazil.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLooking specifically at the exports to the UAE, they were driven by the flip-flop sandals, which grew 433% in volume in relation to January of last year. It is noteworthy that the import of this Brazilian product accounts for more than 50% roll,\u201d reported Abical\u00e7ados market intelligence coordinator Priscila Linck in a release ANBA.<\/p>\n<p>In the first month of the year, Brazil registered shipping 15 million pairs to more than 150 destinations, with a USD 99.3 million revenue, increasing 33,4% in volume and 23% in revenue compared to January 2018.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is a positive effect in Brazilian exports, observed since the last quarter of 2018, which is diluted in all markets. There is no highlight or difference specific to the UAE. The trend is due mostly to the international stabilization, relenting trade tensions, and the currency board,\u201d added Linck.<\/p>\n<p>The main destinations of Brazilian shoes in January were the United States, French, Argentine and the United Kingdom, in this order. Over the month, the Americans bought 1.67 million pairs for USD 18.47 million, an 80% growth in volume and a 52% one in revenue over the same month in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe perception of a recovery in the American market, specially considering the possibility of an extra taxation on Chinese shoes in USA, is being confirmed,\u201d said Abical\u00e7ados president Heitor Klein in the release published by the association. According to him, Brazil should occupy the space left by the Asian show in that market.<\/p>\n<p>France imported 1.77 million Brazilian pairs for USD 9 million, a 4% and a 21% drop respectively if compared to January 2018. There was also a decrease in sales to Argentina, according to Abical\u00e7ados, because of its economic crisis and to preserve its exchange reserves. In January, the neighbor country bought 333,270 pairs for USD 4.3 million, a 2% decrease in pairs and a 24.6% in revenue compared to January 2018.<\/p>\n<p>The United Kingdom bough more Brazilian shoes in January: 307,300 pairs for USD 3.54 million, a 231% climb in volume and 115% in dollars in the same comparative. \u201cAmid heated debates over its exit from the European Union, that country seems to be diversifying their shoe suppliers,\u201d assessed Klein in the release.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_209081\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-209081\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-209081\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/porto-pecem-cear\u00e1-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/porto-pecem-cear\u00e1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/porto-pecem-cear\u00e1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/porto-pecem-cear\u00e1-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/porto-pecem-cear\u00e1-1.jpg 1497w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-209081\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pec\u00e9m Port in Cear\u00e1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Abical\u00e7ados president reported yet that the positive number in exports was driven by the shipped volume from Cear\u00e1, which climbed by almost 60% in relation to January of last year. \u201cThere is a recovery movement in shipping, already felt in the final months of the last year,\u201d he commented. According to Klein, the more stable exchange and the recovery of the US market are also important indicators.<\/p>\n<p>A total of 7.3 million pairs were shipped from Cear\u00e1, yielding USD 38 million \u2013 increases of 44.3% and 56.8% respectively over January 2018.
