An mango exporter and producer said, “Overall it’s exceeding expectations. The fair was well-loved by importers even though it was the first time it’s been held in Brazil It will definitely grow stronger, in the case of exporters are concerned, we’re in good shape because we’ve got lots of goods and we are having as the most fun we can have to allow the world to come and experience the exotic flavors and review our services.”

IFEMA Madrid organized the exhibition with the help of the Brazilian Association of Fruit and Derivatives Exporters (Abrafrutas).

We’ve met very experienced manufacturers, knowledgeable importers and exporters of Europe, USA, Middle East and Middle East, among others. We’ve met a variety of prospective producers as well as customers who are looking for the products Brazil provides. The challenge for us is connecting the most reliable and trustworthy producers to reliable importers. In this manner, the business is never in trouble. We are planning to begin the process of separating ginger and lime from sweet potato around 2024.”
