“The development of Expo Dubai marks a new milestone in the
process of economic revival, becoming the ideal opportunity for our
country to reassert itself in the economic, commercial and tourist
arena, positioning us before the eyes of the world,” said Amora
Carbajal, executive president of PROMPERÚ.
The announcement was made after signing an agreement with DP
World, a port logistics operator that will allow the best products
to be sent from Peru to Dubai so that millions of visitors from all
over the world may enjoy and get to know this country better.
BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY
The Peruvian booth will promote various activities such as
business roundtables related to the textile sector to boost its
alpaca fiber and Peruvian cotton. With the aim of showing the
diversity in natural raw materials, food fairs will be held, where
superfoods will be front and center.
The UAE ranks fifth in Peruvian shipments to Asia, behind China,
South Korea, Japan and India. In 2020, non-traditional exports to
the Middle East giant grew by 6.1% compared to 2019. On the other
hand, within the framework of Expo 2020 Dubai, the World Travel
Awards will be awarded in South America, where Peru is nominated in
16 categories. It is a great opportunity to promote this country’s
main tourist destinations.
It is estimated that this event would provide Peru with a
potential market of $2.14 billion for its export products and an
income of more than $44 million in currencies from tourism within
two years.
