The show ran from Tuesday (11) to Friday (14).<\/p>\n<p>Consul and Office chief Mohamed Elkhatib said the trade show enabled good contacts to be made. \u201cWe had great feedback from people on the Egyptian brands. Most of the were from smaller businesses, like restaurants and coffeeshops. That\u2019s why it\u2019s not viable for them to buy whole shipping containers at once,\u201d said Elkhatib, who\u2019d already told ANBA that 90% of the brands featured in the stand weren\u2019t available in Brazil yet.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_215951\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-215951\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-06-14-at-16.21.43.jpeg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-215951 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-06-14-at-16.21.43-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-06-14-at-16.21.43-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-06-14-at-16.21.43-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-06-14-at-16.21.43-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-06-14-at-16.21.43.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-215951\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Egypt&#8217;s stand in food industry show Fispal Food Service featured 21 brands<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But apart from smaller-sized enterprises, the consul said he managed to arrange 15 to 20 important meetings with importers. These are key in enabling purchases by interested restaurants and caf\u00e9s, and Elkhatib explains that he\u2019ll keep track of the next steps, intermediating negotiations with the Egyptian brands.<\/p>\n<p>Most-sought items included dried tomatoes, a tamarind drink, dates and olives from Egypt.
