The 10 Sudanese and one Egyptian are attending the event by invitation of trading company Via Montex, based in S\u00e3o Jos\u00e9 dos Campos, looking for services and equipment. Their visit to Brazil, however, should not be restricted to the fair. They should pay visits to companies and farms this week.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Via Montex international marketing manager Nicholas Lopez, the Sudanese are seeking crop management services and equipment such as center-pivot systems, drip irrigation systems, windpumps and machinery for maize and soy crops. \u201cThey want to see and buy Brazilian technology. There are some deals lined up, but none closed yet,\u201d said Lopez.<\/p>\n<p>The delegation that is already in Ribeir\u00e3o Preto comprises one Egyptian and four Sudanese from companies such as Prosperity Sudan. This Wednesday (1st) a group of six other Sudanese will arrive from Fortaleza, Cear\u00e1. The group includes the minister of Animal Resources and Fisheries, Faisal Hassan.<\/p>\n<p>Lopez said the Sudanese at Agrishow should also pay a visit to a goat farm and a slaughterhouse in the city of Bauru. The schedule includes a visit to aircraft manufacturing company Embraer\u2019s headquarters in S\u00e3o Jos\u00e9 dos Campos.<\/p>\n<p>The <b>Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/b> has a booth at the show to serve Arab importers and Brazilian companies interested in exporting to countries in the Middle East and North Africa. The Chamber\u2019s business executive Hans Lima, who is attending Agrishow, said there are several opportunities available. \u201cExports to Arab countries can increase, as can the range of products we sell them.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Agrishow features 790 exhibitors and covers 440,000 square metres. At least 2,500 foreign visitors will attend the fair, which will include international business matchmaking rounds and is expected to result in deals worth a combined R$ 2.5 billion (US$ 1.24 billion). Agrishow should receive 152,000 visitors.<\/p>\n<p><b>Service <\/b><br \/>20th Agrishow Fair<br \/>April 29 to May 3, 2013<br \/>Polo Regional de Desenvolvimento Tecnol\u00f3gico dos Agroneg\u00f3cios do Centro-Leste<br \/>Ribeir\u00e3o Preto \u2013 State of S\u00e3o Paulo<br \/>From 8:00 am to 6:00 pm<br \/>Site: www.agrishow.com.br<\/p>\n<p><b>*Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/b><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-185277\">Press Release<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Businessmen from Sudan and Egypt are visiting the Agrishow fair, in the city of Ribeir\u00e3o Preto, looking for crop management services and equipment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2317,"featured_media":185277,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[107],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-44637","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business-opportunities"},"wps_subtitle":"Businessmen from Sudan and Egypt are visiting the Agrishow fair, in the city of Ribeir\u00e3o Preto, looking for crop management services and equipment.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44637","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2317"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44637"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44637\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/185277"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44637"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44637"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44637"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
