The emirate is one of the world\u2019s largest goods redistribution centers, with several free zones that specialize in different economic segments.<\/p>\n<p>According to Rafael Solimeo, head of the ABCC office in Dubai, the goal is taking advantage of the presence of Brazilian coffee exporters at the food and beverage show Gulfood, which will be held in the emirate from February 13 to 17, to present the project and discuss eventual partnerships.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDMCC has a coffee center that could be used to process green coffee, and in Gulfood we will suggest bringing coffee here, processing it [at DMCC], adding cardamom [used in Arabic coffee] and selling it to Saudi Arabia, Oman, or Bahrain,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p>Last November, DMCC chairman Ahmed Sultan Bin Sulayem was in Brazil to present the newly opened cacao center of DMCC to cacao processing plants \u2014 including Cacau Show \u2013 and farms.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with Terraviva TV channel, he explained that the free zone\u2019s processing plants offer industrialization processes that could be used by companies interested in setting up there. \u201cIt\u2019s an important benefit for startups and companies that are new to the UAE, as they don\u2019t need to buy equipment, just use our services, thus saving time and money,\u201d Sulayem said.<\/p>\n<p>The free zone opened on 2022 aimed at attracting food commodities from across the globe and exported them, both processed and raw from Dubai to other countries. In addition to the cacao and coffee centers, it also features a tea processing center.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-267333\">Cerrado Mineiro\/Supplied<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce is seeking out parties interested in getting closer to the DMCC free zone, which receives, processes and exports products like coffee from the UAE.
