They believe the results of these meetings will be greatly beneficial to both sides,\u201d said the CEO of the Dubai Export Development Corporation (EDC), Saed Al Awadi, who is heading the delegation from the Arab country.<\/p>\n<p> <!--%IMGNOT1%-->In addition to the meetings at the Chamber, the EDC representatives attended meetings at the S\u00e3o Paulo State Investment and Competitiveness Promotion Agency (Investe S\u00e3o Paulo), the state\u2019s fostering agency Nossa Caixa and the Federation of Industries of the State of S\u00e3o Paulo (Fiesp).<\/p>\n<p> \u201cNossa Caixa offered itself to meet with the Dubai-based companies that want to establish themselves in Brazil to offer financing,\u201d said Awadi. The meeting may take place in the next two days, during which the mission will remain in Brazil to deepen the contacts made during the roundtables. The meeting at the Fiesp was attended by the president of the Arab Brazilian Chamber, Salim Taufic Schahin, the CEO of the organization, Michel Alaby, and other members of the board.<\/p>\n<p> \u201cThe mission, including the businessmen, has broadened the range of opportunities in trade and investment,\u201d said Alaby. He added that the Chamber may request support from the EDC to promote business meetings in Dubai, on occasions when it takes Brazilian businessmen to the emirate, for example during the Big 5 Show, a trade fair for the building industry due November.<\/p>\n<p> <!--%IMGNOT2%-->Marcos Eduardo Regina, the president of All Here Franchising, which owns the brands Pastel\u00e2ndia, Burgerland and Fam\u00edlia Regina, was one of the Brazilian entrepreneurs who attended the business roundtables. He explains that his company is already present in Angola, Angola, Portugal and the United States, and now it wants to enter Dubai. \u201cWe want to repeat the success of Angola where, in one and a half year, we opened 20 stores and are earning revenues of US$ 1 million per month,\u201d he claimed. \u201cThe talks were good. We are now taking care of our next steps, which are visiting the country, choosing the spots and seeing how we are going there, as master franchisers or as partners in the operation,\u201d he finished off.<\/p>\n<p> \u201cThe Brazilian companies showed much openness to business with the Arab world. They may work in a two-way street, from Dubai to Brazil and from Brazil to Dubai,\u201d said Mohamed El Kati, the Foreign Markets manager at the Dubai Export, which took part in the roundtables as the representative of two Arab companies.<\/p>\n<p> <b>*Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Businessmen from Dubai and Brazil assembled during two days at the Arab Brazilian Chamber.
