S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Brazilian food and beverage companies that join the Halal Brazil<\/strong> project will be able to participate later this year in trade shows and business mission across various countries like South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Registration is open to participate in the program, which runs through December and was announced Tuesday (4) in a webinar for businesspeople.<\/p>\n

Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/strong> (ABCC) Internationalization Projects manager Fernanda Dantas presented the events calendar for the following months, which is part of Halal Brazil. The project is carried out by the ABCC and the Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency (ApexBrasil) aimed at taking 500 companies from the Latin American country to the global halal market.<\/p>\n

Malaysia\u2019s MIHAS <\/strong>(pictured above<\/em>) is an exhibition that runs from September 11 to 15. Malaysia is considered the world\u2019s largest food and beverage market and the world\u2019s third largest importer of halal food. The project will have a collective stand at MIHAS, the region\u2019s leading multisectoral show, with support from the ABCC and events on the sidelines of the show to help break into the market. The exhibition has run since 2004 and has become a major halal business hub. Last year the event generated USD 513 million worth of deals. \u201cWe believe this is a market with much potential for juices and beverages,\u201d said Dantas.<\/p>\n

The trade mission to South Africa<\/strong> takes place from November 8 to 17 and will visit Johannesburg, Durban, and Cape Town. It\u2019s one of the world\u2019s most relevant halal markets, with a high consumption of such goods. South Africa is the second largest economy in Africa, and 40% of the products consumed there are halal certified.<\/p>\n

It\u2019ll include visits to supermarkets, companies, plants and distributors, B2B meetings with buyers, and participation in Halal Trade Africa<\/strong>. The city of Durban concentrates the country\u2019s largest Muslim population. There\u2019s an program option that\u2019s limited to Johannesburg and Durban.<\/p>\n

From November 8 to 15, the project will lead a mission to Jakarta, Indonesia<\/strong>, with a stand at SIAL Jakarta and a whole schedule in the Indonesian market. The country is home to the world\u2019s largest Islamic population, is the world\u2019s 16th<\/sup> biggest economy and the second largest halal importer. Its population is young, and there\u2019s a major demand for premium products.<\/p>\n

The SIAL Jakarta<\/strong> is the region\u2019s leading event and will run from November 8 to 11. Its last edition featured 1,5000 exhibitors from 30 countries and over 85,000 visitors from 62 countries. The schedule will feature appointments and guided tours on the sidelines of the show.<\/p>\n

Before the year ends, there will be another two events. One is the mission to Saudi Arabia<\/strong>, including the participation in Riyadh\u2019s<\/strong> Saudi Halal Expo<\/strong>, which runs from November 19 to 21. The multisectoral show is focused on innovation and sustainability, and the project will have a stand in the event, as well as B2B meetings and visits. The Arab country is the world\u2019s largest importer of halal food.<\/p>\n

The trade mission to Egypt<\/strong> finishes off the year of 2023 with a program from December 12 to 14, when the Food Africa <\/strong>takes place in Cairo<\/strong>. The Brazilian government will participate with a stand. Egypt is the second largest Arab import of food and beverages from Brazil. The mission will be an opportunity to dive into the market, contact buyers and distributors, and it\u2019ll feature a customized schedule according to each company, besides visiting the show.<\/p>\n

The halal market is that whose products are fit for Muslim consumption. The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) consists of 57 member states<\/strong>, whose combined markets add up to 2 billion residents, with an expected growth above the global average. \u201cThe GDP of these 57 countries stand at USD 6.5 trillion, and the food and beverage market alone in 2021 reached USD 1.260 trillion. There\u2019s a huge room for Brazilian products to grow,\u201d said ambassador Osmar Chohfi, president of the ABCC, during the event. Brazil sold USD 23 billion to this massive market in 2021.<\/p>\n

In addition to the international events, the ABCC will hold the 2nd<\/sup> edition of the Global Halal Business <\/strong>(GHB) forum from October 23 to 24 in S\u00e3o Paulo. October 25 and 26 will see the holding of the buyer project, which plans on bringing 15 international buyers.<\/p>\n

Companies interested in participating<\/strong> in one or more events have to join the Halal Brazil, be halal certified or be interested in obtaining the certification, and be an exporter or be interested in exporting.
