It will be attended by representatives of the different sections of the Portuguese agrifood sector, who will meet with buyers from different international markets with the aim of driving their business from a single, integrated platform.

Importers who sign up for the meetings will find producers from all the different sectors of the Portuguese agri-food industry, including fresh fruit and vegetables, preserves, meat products, cheeses, wines, oils, snacks, and other gourmet products. With just three weeks to go before the start of this digital mission, buyers have already been confirmed from markets of great interest to Portugal such as Germany, Dubai, Ireland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway, among others.

The platform is already in operation, so importers who want to learn more about what the Portuguese agri-food sector has to offer can now register free of charge to make contact with the companies of most interest to them and arrange a date and time to hold a business meeting.
