According to him, the exhibitors that are in the show this year are optimistic.“They are having good contacts and meetings; it's encouraging, and they want to come back next year,” he said.

Representing the Jordan Brazilian Business Association , Fariz signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (ABCC) on Wednesday (18) to deepen ties and support businesspeople by taking information and facilitating the contact between the business communities of the two countries, he said.

“We have the role of strengthening ties between Jordan and Brazil and boost trade between both sides, for exports and imports. I believe the Brazilian market is huge, and it's our job to raise awareness and inform Jordanian businesspeople about this potential market, which offers very high-quality products,” he said.

The ABCC also signed an MoU with the Amman Chambe of Industry , represented by its chairman Fathi Al-Jaghbir, who is also the head of the Jordan Chamber of Industry.“The cooperation agreement we signed is setting forth and expressing the economic and trade cooperation between our two countries, which have different areas and potentials for cooperation. This arises from an understanding of the business community in both countries of the real opportunities in each country that could use our benefits,” Al-Jaghbir said.

The cooperation agreement , he said, includes the transfer of knowledge and information in different sectors, the exchange of trade delegations between both countries and all commercial activities that could facilitate the goals and objectives of each party.“In this sense, I'd like to take this opportunity to invite the Brazilian business community to use the business environment in Jordan that will provide them easy access to all Arab countries and use the free trade agreements we have in Jordan,” he invited.

The mission from Jordan to Brazil was organized by the Jordan Brazilian Business Association in cooperation with the Jordan Export House, with the support of the ABCC and the Embassy of Jordan in Brazil. After the participation in this year's APAS, which ended on Thursday (19), Fariz said he is planning a new visit of businesspeople to the Arab country to Brazil, and that Brazilians visit Jordan.

“We're very ambitious and want the Brazilians to get to know Joran and see it as a hub for the Middle East, with the possibility of selling their products not only in the domestic market but across the region, in Syria, Iraq, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, the entire Gulf, just like Brazil is a gateway for Latin America,” Fariz said. He added that they are planning a trip of Brazilian tourism operators to Jordan.
