Brazil obtains approval to export eggs to South Africa

 

The conclusion of the negotiations depended only on the International Sanitary Certificate (ITC) to support Brazilian shipments.

With this resolved, the South African sanitary authority can already issue the Import Permits, which allows the immediate start of the business, Brazil's Ministry of Agriculture statement read.

Brazil already exports eggs to more than 50 countries, with remittances equivalent to US $ 110 million in 2016.

According to the Secretary of International Relations, Odilson Luiz Ribeiro e Silva, "the beginning of Brazilian exports of fresh eggs and processed eggs to Africa of the South reiterates the quality and sanity of the Brazilian product and will contribute to the strengthening of the agricultural sector, expanding and diversifying exports ".

The Brazilian products will arrive in South Africa within 19 days, which represents an advantage over suppliers in the United States, since their delivery time is 31 days.
