The B2Bs at the Arab Brazilian Chamber put services and goods suppliers face to face with retailers. SP Neg\u00f3cios Business and Exports director Silvana Scheffel Gomes explained that B2Bs at the domestic market are a chance for companies to increase their turnover in order to have a breathing space for international operations.<\/p>\n<p>SP Neg\u00f3cios has a program focused on promoting exports, SP Exporta. Silvana said that exporting means to lay off the business risks for the companies. SP Neg\u00f3cios works on encouraging exporting together with the Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency (Apex-Brasil), through the Qualification for Export Program (PEIEX). As part of the initiative, 150 companies receive internal training with consulting firms and 590 participate in the program as a whole.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_253960\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-253960\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/abiesv3.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-253960 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/abiesv3-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/abiesv3-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/abiesv3-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/abiesv3-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/abiesv3.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-253960\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Fernandez: company will begin exporting<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The company Green Natural Foods participated in the B2Bs aiming to supply creamy cassava for the retail representatives at the Arab Brazilian Chamber.

Lemca supplies lightning products, usually associated with architectonic projects. The modern solutions they offer include LED lamps, with low consumption and high durability.
