2/28/23, 2:22 PM Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce organises workshop on halal market
The halal committee was established earlier this month as part of the Halal do Brasil project with the goal of
increasing the number of Brazilian companies receiving halal certification and thereby boosting the share of
the country’s products in this market. The committee also aims to strengthen Brazil’s status as one of largest

producer of halal products, as well as spread knowledge about the global halal market. The responsibilities
of this committee include managing relationships with international certification agents, providing the ABCC
with technical data on halal certification procedures, discussing and exchanging information regarding the

challenges, trends, and opportunities in the halal market, ensuring the accuracy of the data, disseminating
technical content, and conducting training.

The Halal do Brasil project was launched by the ABCC and Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion
Agency (ApexBrasil) to promote Brazilian exports of halal products to the Arab countries. The ApexBrasil
works to promote Brazilian products and services abroad and attract foreign investment to strategic sectors

of the Brazilian economy. The Agency carries out several trade promotion activities, such as trade missions
and business roundtables, in addition to providing support for Brazilian companies to participate in major
international fairs and arranging visits by foreign buyers and opinion makers to learn about the Brazilian
production structure. More information: www.apexbrasil.com.br.
