Brazil secures exports of flavor enhancers to Thailand
Dec, 06, 2023 Posted by Gabriel MalheirosWeek 202345
Thailand has announced it will open its market for flavor enhancers for animal feed (based on hydrolyzed chicken and pork liver) from Brazil. The approval of the International Sanitary Certificate (ISC) required for the trade of such products was pending for about three months.
This announcement follows the recent opening of the Thai market for Brazilian corn meal, one of the products resulting from corn ethanol production, technically known as DDG (distiller’s dried grains) or DDGS (distiller’s dried grains with solubles). This development is expected to increase trade flow between the two countries.
During a press conference last Tuesday (28), Roberto Perosa, the Secretary of Commerce and International Relations at the Ministry of Agriculture, pointed out that Brazil gained access to 73 new markets as of November.
In 2022, Brazil exported a total of $3.14 billion in agricultural products to Thailand, or around 5.58 million tonnes. According to data from the Ministry’s Secretariat of Commerce and International Relations (SCRI/Mapa), the country was the third leading destination for Brazilian agricultural exports in Asia.
Among the main products shipped were soybeans ($1.68 billion) and soybean meal ($1.33 billion), representing 96% of the export agenda.
With a diversified export agenda, the government in Brazil facilitated negotiations in the Americas (Argentina, Canada, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Uruguay, Ecuador, Colombia, Chile, Panama, and Paraguay), totaling 29 markets.
In Asia (Indonesia, Singapore, China, India, Malaysia, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Thailand, Japan, Israel, and Saudi Arabia), 25 markets were secured.
Negotiations involved ten products in the African continent (Egypt, Algeria, Angola, South Africa, Morocco, and Kenya).
There were three markets in Europe (Russia, Belarus, and Turkey). In Oceania (French Polynesia, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, and New Zealand), six markets were established.
