S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 The ambassador of Bahrain<\/strong> to Bras\u00edlia, Bader Alhelaibi, visited Santa Catarina last Friday (6) and met with businesspeople of the Southern state. The Federation of Business Associations of Santa Catarina (FACISC) hosted an event with businesspeople, leaders and the Arab diplomat. The meeting aimed at strengthening trade ties between the Gulf country and the state of Santa Catarina and discuss business opportunities.<\/p>\n

Alhelaibi (pictured above, L<\/em>) was welcomed by the federation\u2019s chair S\u00e9rgio Rodrigues Alves (R<\/em>) and congresswoman Caroline De Toni. The meeting featured businesspeople that represent different regions of the state.

The ambassador said that he wants to deepen ties with Brazil and emphasized the importance of the meeting to strengthen the economic, commercial and investment partnership between the two friendly countries, building upon the positive results of the visit of Brazil\u2019s president Jair Bolsonaro to Manama last November to open the Brazilian embassy in the country. This was the first time ever a Brazilian president visited Bahrain.<\/p>\n

Santa Catarina is the Brazilian state that imports the most aluminum<\/strong> from Bahrain. The ambassador said that a good partnership between the state and the country could be an investment in infrastructure. He suggested that a delegation from Brazil visits Bahrain.<\/p>\n
