The industry trades about USD 35 billion annually in Brazil, representing 0.6% of the national GDP. In 2021, the country exported USD 15 billion in medical and hospital equipment to the Arab countries. In the same period, Saudi Arabia imported USD 1.26 billion in equipment worldwide, and only USD 1.4 million was purchased from Brazil, accounting for 0.11%.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is potential and opportunities to increase medical and hospital equipment sales from Brazil to the Saudi market.
