The president of ApexBrasil, Jorge Viana, has declared Africa a strategic priority for Brazil, emphasizing shared historical ties and economic complementarities. He made this statement ahead of the Brazil-Mozambique Business Forum in Maputo, an event reflecting the Brazilian government's focus on South-South cooperation.
The forum, organized with several Brazilian and Mozambican agencies, aims to strengthen bilateral economic ties. It will bring together hundreds of business leaders to explore partnerships in sectors like agriculture, health, and education. Brazilian exports to Mozambique recently reached 37.8 million dollars, primarily in poultry and furniture, with ApexBrasil identifying over a hundred further business opportunities.
This mission is part of a broader Brazilian effort to expand its presence in Africa, where bilateral trade totals 24.1 billion dollars. The event coincides with Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's official visit to Mozambique, which marks fifty years of Mozambican independence.
