Azorean companies participate in SISAB Portugal 2019 - International Trade Fair for Portuguese Food and Beverage
The Azores participate with their own stand that will feature 31 companies that will be represented in SISAB Portugal 2019 - International Trade Fair for Portuguese Food and Beverage to take place at Altice Arena in Lisbon between February 25 and 27.
The participating Azorean companies plan to launch new products, present new strategies and establish more partnerships and businesses. They represent several sectors of activity with export potential, including dairy products, meat processing, liqueurs, wines, fish, canned fish, traditional confectionery, honey and other agri-food products.
SISAB Portugal is the largest annual platform for leading companies and entrepreneurs in the export sector, where national companies can find the most relevant food industry importers from the five continents.
The presence of regional companies at SISAB Portugal is an initiative of the Vice-Presidency of the Government, through SDEA - Society for Business Development of the Azores, in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Azores.
The participation of the Region falls within the strategy to increase the export of regional products and services developed by the Government of the Azores.
This plan includes multiple initiatives and several support measures for companies, namely the participation in fairs, promotional activities and business missions. They are intended to promote the external visibility of the Region and, particularly, of companies and products bearing the "Azores Brand" seal, thus fostering new business opportunities.
