The Operational Backbone
of the EAU-Brazil Corridor
We don’t just connect markets; we execute strategies. The definitive ecosystem for investors, corporations, and governments bridging the Middle East and Latin America.
A Multi-Billion
Dollar Sinergy
The progress in bilateral political relations over the past decade has evolved into a powerhouse economic partnership. Since 2008, the UAE has solidified its position as Brazil’s second-largest trading partner in the Middle East.
The Power of Complementarity
Our economies are perfectly aligned. Brazil acts as the guarantor of food security and industrial potential, while the UAE provides capital, logistics, and energy transition leadership.
Key Market Indicators
Major UAE players are deeply embedded in Brazil. Mubadala, the sovereign investor, manages a portfolio exceeding US$ 2 billion in Brazilian territory.
Strategic Investment
Logistical Dominance
DP World, one of the planet's largest port operators, controls a private terminal in the Port of Santos (São Paulo) — a joint venture that serves as the primary logistical artery for trade.
Connectivity
Emirates Airlines operates 19 weekly flights connecting Dubai to Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.
Institutional Presence
The Brazilian Export and Investment Promotion Agency (ApexBrasil) maintains its only Middle East office in Dubai, reinforcing the city's status as a regional hub.
