The secretary-general & CEO of the ABCC, Tamer Mansour, participated in the opening days of the show and said the Saudi Halal Expo, as it is very segmented, brought promising contacts for Brazilian companies, especially with Saudis and Omanis.

With the mission of opening up the Saudi market to a\u00e7a\u00ed berries, Petruz\u2019s sales director, Rafael Ferreira, participated in the Saudi Halal Expo. According to him, there is a powerful connection between the region and a\u00e7a\u00ed due to the climate, and the event was a showcase. For Ferreira, participation was the first step towards this market, and the location of the Brazil pavilion gave the booths a lot of visibility. \u201cWe made great contacts, and now we hope they turn into business in the future,\u201d said Ferreira.<\/p>\n

Fambras Halal presented its latest innovation at the show, Sys Halal, a multiplatform cloud system for managing and tracing halal facilities and products. Sys Halal is composed of the modules Halal Certification for managing certificates, Management and Assurance of Halal Processes, which controls everything from the audit to the issuance of the certificate for the production plants and shipment, and Traceability, with information on the stages of the production chain of some halal products. Cdial Halal\u2019s participation aimed to strengthen ties with regional entities and trade relations between Brazil and Saudi Arabia, prospect new business, and exchange information on market trends. \u201cWe participated in the meetings with the main supermarkets in the region to present Brazilian products to these potential buyers,\u201d said one of the certifier\u2019s representatives at the show, Operations director Ahmad Saifi. According to him, Cdial Halal is working together with companies to find a way to reach these supermarkets.<\/p>\n
