They were at USD 155.4 million that year and rose to USD 488.9 million last year, according to a presentation made by the regional director and head of the <strong>Arab-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/strong> (<a href=\"https:\/\/ccab.org.br\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ABCC<\/a>) Office in Egypt, Micheal Gamal Kaddes.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Forum addressed Egypt\u2019s access to global markets\" class=\"wp-image-375210\" style=\"width:318px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gamal-forum-2.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Forum addressed Egypt\u2019s access to global markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Gamal spoke at the Forum on Development and Access of Egyptian Exports to Global Markets, held by the Cairo Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with the Arab Union of Customs Brokers and the ABCC in Cairo last week. According to Gamal, Egyptian exports to Brazil have diversified, moving away from just fertilizers to include agricultural and manufactured products, and Brazilian exports to Egypt have also progressed in the same direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ABCC\u2019s regional director highlighted that some Egyptian companies have already been able to take advantage of the competitive benefits opened up by the agreement, such as the sale of frozen strawberries and oranges. According to him, Brazil consumes Egyptian cotton, and there is a growing demand in the Brazilian market for olives, olive oils, and dates, which Egypt produces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Brazil is the future of Egypt\u2019s exports<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gamal sees the Brazilian market as the future of Egyptian exports, given that Brazil is the eighth-largest economy in the world and the third most agricultural country globally, with a population of over 200 million people and a vast territorial area of more than 8 million square kilometers. Providing an overview of the ABCC\u2019s work, he listed language barriers and distances between different regions as challenges for selling to Brazil but emphasized that Brazilian importers are friendly and welcome the opening of trade relations with various countries around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Read more:<\/em><br><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/egypt-opens-market-to-brazilian-bone-in-beef\/\">Egypt opens market to Brazilian bone-in beef<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-375236\">Supplied<\/div><div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-375210\">Supplied<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At a forum in Cairo, the head of the Arab-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce Office in Egypt, Micheal Gamal Kaddes, presented the results of the free trade agreement between the Arab country and Mercosur.
