MSMEs for the world
The fair represents a significant opportunity for global business, being an ample space for positioning organic exporting companies.
Maluff stated that Paraguay’s participation is essential because it reflects the seriousness and precise work of the country in positioning organic products globally. He indicated that the event is crucial because it is transitioning from a matrix of selling 100% organic primary products to processed organic products.
He mentioned that a delegation is also participating to learn how organic products are sold and positioned in other countries.
The Embassy of Paraguay in Germany accompanies the national delegation in person with the presence of Chargé d’Affaires Mr. Eduardo Von Glasenapp, supporting on-site in the management and generation of contacts with companies in the food chain in Germany and Europe.
