DTI SA PH EXPORTERS: LATIN AMERICA MARKET PASUKIN

HINIMOK ng Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), sa pamamagitan ng Export Marketing Bureau (EMB), Foreign Trade Service Corps (FTSC), at ng Philippine Trade and Investment Center (PTIC) nito sa Mexico ang Philippine exporters na magbenta ng kanilang mga produkto sa Latin America market.

Ayon sa DTI, ang tatlong ahensiya ng pamahalaan ay magdaraos ng webinar para sa PH exporters na interesadong magkaroon ng trade relations sa Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, at Chile.

Ang webinar na may titulong “Philippine Export Opportunities in Latin America” ay gaganapin sa July 28, 2020, via Zoom, simula alas-8 ng umaga hanggang alas-10 ng umaga.

“The webinar is an ideal opportunity for companies interested in doing business in Latin America. For beginners as well as experienced companies, it is useful to connect to stakeholders in the field and gain important information on how to do business with and in Latin America,” wika ni DTI-EMB Director Senen M. Perlada.

“Latin America is a market of over 600 million consumers with opportunities for Philippine exports of processed food, personal care products, and other fast-moving consumer items,” dagdag pa niya.

Kabilang sa mga paksa ang Business Opportunities in the Natural & Organics Sector Trading with Amazon Online in Mexico ni Eduardo Aviles, Director of Bionutrients International; Business Opportunities in Argentina ni Martin Mansur, isang economist ng Camara Del Asia; Business Opportunities in Brazil ni   Leonardo A.F. Palhares, president ng Brazilian Coconut Institute; Chilean Market & Opportunities Overview ni Gerardo Velasco, presidente ng Chile-ASEAN Chamber of Commerce; at The Orange Economy: Opportunities in ITES Columbia ni Rowena Bagadion, Chairman and CEO ng W Bagadion Consulting.

Magsisilbing moderator sa event si DTI Foreign Trade Service Officer Vichael Angelo Roaring, head ng PTIC Mexico, attached to the Philippine Embassy in Mexico kung saan nagsisilbi rin siyang Commercial Counselor.

“This activity is a means of reintroducing Philippine business to Latin America. Several centuries ago, the galleon trade was the first means of global commerce that enabled cross-continental trade from Asia to Mexico and the rest of New Spain. Now, we are challenged to reinvigorate our trade links with this region as our country, because of the culture and history we share with this region, is a very ideal trade partner for Mexico and the rest of Latin America,” aniya.

Sasamahan ng Philippine Ambassadors sa Argentina, Brazil, Chile, at Mexico ang mga speaker sa Q&A portion ng programa.
