This Tuesday (2) in your ANBA Bulletin: International sea shipping rates skyrocketed in the beginning of the pandemic but have returned to previous levels and are expected to remain low. However, Brazil faces some challenges like the capacity of its ports to receive the new bigger, more efficient vessels. Brazil is participating in the International Exhibition of Agriculture from May 2 to 7 in Meknes, Morocco. Brazil’s Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock and the Brazilian embassy in Rabat are taking 11 companies. And Egyptian firm TileGreen uses plastic waste to manufacture paving tiles. The product is patented, and other countries have showed interest in the solution. |

The record-high ocean freight costs seen during the pandemic are unlikely to come back. There’s a downward trend in the rates due to both an excess of ships and the slow recovery of the global economy. Furthermore, environmental legislations and the need for investments in Brazilian ports are some of the challenges for major global shipowners to balance costs and profitability. Shipping prices in Brazil may be higher due to logistics costs but don’t go anywhere near the peaks of up to USD 12,000 seen in 2021 and 2022.

Bearing in mind the low recycling rate of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), an Egyptian startup has developed a solution to help change this situation. The region is going through a moment of awareness-raising on issues regarding the environment, sustainability and solid waste management, but some of its countries still have the world’s lowest recycling rates or don’t even recycle at all.
