According to Dib, the vast majority of Algerian businesspeople purchase imported products through French trading companies. The idea is that the contacts made during the mission allow direct trade to take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDuring the presentations, the willingness to broaden the horizons of trade between the two countries was clear,\u201d Dib said. He says that during the business rounds and company visits, several entrepreneurs were asked to submit price quotes. \u201cAlways regarding raw materials,\u201d Dib says. Algeria encourages the supply of domestically manufactured products, and its imports are focused on inputs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The program opened with a seminar at the Algerian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, where its president, Chebab Tayeb, delivered the welcome remarks, and the speakers included the minister-counselor of the Brazilian Embassy in Algiers, Bruno Luiz dos Santos Cobuccio, the president of the ABCC, and the Director of Economic Promotion and Support at Algeria\u2019s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Nafaa Sihem. Among the participants was the president of the Boumerdes Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Charef Rabah.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/argelia-bellat--768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Brazilians also visited the company Bellat\" class=\"wp-image-400462\" style=\"width:226px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/argelia-bellat--768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/argelia-bellat--450x600.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/argelia-bellat--113x150.jpeg 113w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/argelia-bellat--1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/argelia-bellat--150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/argelia-bellat-.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Brazilians also visited the company Bellat<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Brazilian entrepreneurs also attended a presentation on Algeria\u2019s business environment delivered by the Algerian Investment Promotion Agency, and they had the opportunity to introduce their companies and network with Algerian counterparts. \u201cThe presence of Algerian businesspeople was significant, and afterward we held a round of negotiations with many participants from different sectors,\u201d Dib said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among other activities, the Brazilian delegation visited companies Groupe Bellat and Groupe LaBelle. Bellat specializes in meat products such as cachirs, p\u00e2t\u00e9s, and smoked roasts, and positions itself as a reference in Algeria\u2019s agri-food market. At LaBelle, the Brazilians saw the company\u2019s coffee production and sugar refining. According to Dib, 60% of the coffee used is Brazilian, as well as 100% of the sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Brazilian companies taking part in the mission were Manuel &amp; Vitta, Prime Company, Timbro, BRA Commodities, Aurea Internacional Agroneg\u00f3cio, and TPJ. Representing the ABCC, in addition to Dib, was the institution\u2019s director of Institutional Relations, Fernanda Baltazar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to data from Brazil\u2019s Ministry of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services, compiled by the ABCC, in 2024 Brazil exported USD 2.5 billion to Algeria, with sugar, corn, soybeans, and iron ore as the main products shipped. In the same period, Brazil imported USD 1.4 billion from Algeria, mainly in crude oil, refined oil, and nitrogen fertilizers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Read more<\/em>:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/brazil-algeria-hold-political-consultation-talks\/\">Brazil, Algeria hold political consultation talks<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><br><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-400456\">Supplied<\/div><div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-400459\">Supplied<\/div><div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-400462\">Supplied<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brazilian companies took part in a trade mission to Algeria last week.
