BURLESON, TX / ACCESS Newswire / April 22, 2025 / Sadot Group Inc. (NASDAQ:SDOT) ("Sadot Group", "Sadot", or the "Company"), an emerging player in the global agri-food supply chain, is proud to announce that its Brazilian subsidiary has expanded its commodity portfolio by successfully executing its first transaction involving Green Mung Beans. This initial transaction involved originating Brazilian green mung beans with a final destination to Pakistan.
Brazil is a major exporter of green mung beans, especially to China and India. Approximately 95% of the volume produced is exported. Green mung beans are among the most sought-after legumes in the world market, especially in Asia. In many countries where animal protein is not readily available, green mung beans play a fundamental role in providing plant-based protein. As the world population reduces animal protein consumption, plant-based protein has become a viable substitute.
"Sadot is developing a unique strategy leveraging our Brazil and Canadian subsidiaries. Our Canadian subsidiary has tremendous experience with trading legumes, lentils and pulses and these represent a large part of their overall trade volumes. With our Brazil subsidiary now entering the market with green mung beans, originating in Brazil, we will be able to leverage trade credit lines, sourcing product and expand our market coverage. This will further deepen the inter-company synergies which should improve efficiencies and potentially lower costs and improve margins all while creating new opportunities between the two subsidiaries and around the globe," said Catia Jorge, CEO of Sadot Group.
Mr. Paulo de Sa, Head of Sadot Brazil, added "While Brazil agriculture production focuses mainly on soybeans, corn and soybean meal, the production of pulses in Brazil is a niche market that we believe Sadot can be a major player. It's a unique opportunity as the market for legumes is expanding, potentially reaching 3.3 million tons annually. Growers in Brazil are looking for partnerships to export their products."
Sadot Brazil Ltda was formed in January 2024 as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Sadot Group Inc. to build the Company's Brazilian origination capabilities from local farmer collectives, as well as establishing logistical foundations for exporting the commodities. Based in Curitiba, the capital and largest city of the Brazilian state of Paraná, the subsidiary is managed by Paulo de Sa and Flavio de Campos, two highly experienced executives with extensive expertise in the Brazilian Agri-food markets.
