The figures were compiled by the <strong>Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/strong> Market Intelligence Department, based on Ministry of Economy data.<\/p>\n<p>An Arab Chamber analysis shows that the growth came in spite of a 6.4% drop in total exports from Brazil. Arab countries as a bloc remained Brazil\u2019s third biggest export destination.<\/p>\n<p>Best-selling products to Arab countries were poultry, at 19% of total sales; sugar (pictured above) at 18%; iron ore at 15%; beef at 10%; and maize at 9%. As has been the case for the last few years, exports were dirven by agricultural and mineral commodities.<\/p>\n<p>The Arab Chamber Marketing Department points out that exports went up for a few other items, like copper wire, with revenue up 21-fold to USD 97.3 million; gold, up 358% to USD 241 million; and turbojets, turboprops and other gas-fueled turbines, up 148% to USD 211.3 million.<\/p>\n<p>Imports of Arab products to Brazil were down 7.7% to USD 6.4 billion. Mineral fuels have made up the bulk of imports for several years now, with fertilizers a far second. Other items play a very minor role, including plastics and plastic products and aluminum.<\/p>\n<p>Brazilian-Arab trade was up 1.7% to USD 17.7 billion through November, with a USD 4.9 billion surplus on Brazil\u2019s side.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-265048\">Na Lata\/Coopersucar<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sales amounted to USD 11.3 billion year-to-date through November, with agricultural and mineral commodities leading the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":265048,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[91],"tags":[9859,4639,2188,4641,13219,27713,2189,4642],"class_list":{"0":"post-265059","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-economy","8":"tag-arab-chamber-en","9":"tag-camara-arabe-en","10":"tag-export","11":"tag-exportacao-en","12":"tag-exportacao-arabes","13":"tag-exportacao-brasileira-en","14":"tag-import","15":"tag-importacao-en"},"wps_subtitle":"Sales amounted to USD 11.3 billion year-to-date through November, with agricultural and mineral commodities leading the way.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265059","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=265059"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265059\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/265048"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=265059"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=265059"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=265059"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
