The BRF has the biggest meat processing plant in the Middle East region in Khalifa Industrial Zone Abu Dhabi, KIZAD, which employs 600 people.
Igreja said that more such Brazilian companies are expected to enter the UAE market soon, adding that the innovation communities in the two countries also "have a close link."
He mentioned that a Brazilian startup won the top prize at GITEX Future Stars, the region's biggest startup pitch competition.
Key2Enable, an Abu Dhabi-based startup bringing digital accessibility to People of Determination, won the prize 'Supernova Challenge' at GITEX in Dubai this month, the ambassador said.
