S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Footwear exports from Brazil to the United Arab Emirates were up 68% in shipped volume year-to-date through November, as reported on by ANBA last week<\/a>. The UAE are the biggest destination for Brazilian shoes in the Arab world, but sales to other markets across the region also went up significantly.\u201cThe Arab world has been growing [as a market] each year,\u201d Brazilian Footwear Industries Association\u00a0 (Abical\u00e7ados<\/a>) Haroldo Ferreira told ANBA told ANBA this Monday (16).<\/p>\n

Haroldo Ferreira: good results in the Arab world<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From January to November, 3.73 million pairs of shoes got shipped to Arab countries from Brazil, up 39.6% from a year ago. Sales fetched USD 28.4 million, up 20.4%.<\/p>\n

\u201cSales to Arab countries outgrew total exports from Brazil in the first 11 months of the year,\u201d said Ferreira. Total exports climbed 3.8% in volume and 0.9% in revenue.<\/p>\n

Abical\u00e7ados\u2019 chairman also said Arab economies are for the most part stable, hence the growing consumption. \u201cWe\u2019ve been working on this market for a few years now, and the results are great,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

Behind the UAE, the top Arab destinations of footwear from Brazil are Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Algeria, and Egypt. All off them imported more year-on-year.<\/p>\n

Ferreira believes that market of the region may continue to grow in 2020 but not in the same pace of 2019, since it\u2019s hard to keep a growth level so high every year.<\/p>\n

He explained that the UAE specifically act as a hub for reexports to other destinations, so sale to that country are higher. Exports to the UAE, for example, are twice higher than to Saudi Arabia, the region\u2019s second largest market.<\/p>\n

The UAE are the 14th<\/sup> largest destination of footwear from Brazil, which is the 9th<\/sup> largest shoe supplier to the Arab nation, Abical\u00e7ados reported.<\/p>\n

The United States are the main importer of footwear from Brazil, and this year sales to them were up 3.4%. Overall Brazilian exports haven\u2019t grown more because Argentina, the second largest destination, is going through a crisis. \u201cThis year saw a decline of over 20% [in exports] to Argentina, but it remained as the 2nd<\/sup> largest market,\u201d the executive finished.<\/p>\n
