São Paulo – Egypt has authorized Brazilian imports of two more items: collagen and gelatin , said a statement released last week by Brazil's Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock. According to the information, the authorization came on May 15.
The Ministry said sales of gelatin and collagen from any established under the SIF that meet the sanitary requirements and are certified by the IS EG Halal were cleared.
SIF is Brazil's Federal Inspection Service, affiliated with the Agriculture Ministry, that assesses the quality of animal food products as required for import and export activities. IS EG is an entity accredited by Egypt's government to certify halal products exported to the country.
According to the Brazilian government, Egypt is a market with great potential, and the market opening process for these products started last March.
Year to date through April, Brazil exported USD 678 million worth of goods to Egypt, mostly agribusiness products. Best-selling items were sugar, beef, maize, ore, and poultry.
Exports from Egypt to Brazil and from the Arab country to the Brazilian market enjoy tax benefits due to a free trade agreement signed between Egyptians and the Mercosur in 2017.
