ABPA & ApexBrasil promote seminar focused on supporting Dominican food security
The Dominico Brasileiro Agricultural Meeting – as the action was named – had wide coverage from the local press and the presence of Dominican authorities – including the Minister of Agriculture, Limber Cruz Lopez – and Brazilian authorities – such as the Deputy Secretary of Commerce and International Relations of the Ministry of Agriculture, Julio Ramos.
More than 80 importers and local stakeholders were present, along with Brazilian representatives, with the aim of reinforcing the expansion of ties between Brazil and the Dominican Republic, with a focus on food security in the Caribbean country.
During the event organized by ABPA's marketing and commercial promotion team – represented by coordinator Nayara Dalmolin – ABPA's markets director, Luís Rua, reinforced relevant characteristics of Brazilian production to strengthen this partnership – through the sectoral brands Brazilian Chicken and Brazilian Pork.
Among the points highlighted were the sustainable profile of production, the highest sanitary criteria employed by Brazil and the wide range of high-quality products shipped by Brazil's poultry and swine industries to more than 150 nations around the world.
"We had solid interaction with Dominican leaders and society. It was a unique moment to reinforce our main message: we are partners and we want to help the food security of Dominicans. It is within this action profile that Brazil has built itself as a major global player in proteins, and we will continue to do so with our Caribbean partners", highlights Rua.
