CAAR is pleased to share information on a high-value experience hosted by the ARA (Agricultural Retailers Association).

CAAR (Canadian Association of Agri-Retailers) sister association, the ARA (Agricultural Retailers Association), offers its members the opportunity to engage with retailers and trading partners in Brazil this summer. We want to encourage CAAR members to consider attending this mission.

The Mission is the next step in ARA’s evolving multi-year relationship with ANDAV (National Association of Distributors of Agricultural and Veterinary Inputs), its sister association in Brazil. In August 2023, members are invited to join an educational tour to Brazil to visit some of these agribusinesses in person and attend the ANDAV Congress, its annual meeting.

This is a unique opportunity to meet and engage with Brazil’s largest and most progressive retail organizations and share ideas. There are two itineraries set for the event, which both include attendance at the ANDAV Congress:

• 10-Day Itinerary: Choose the longer 10-day itinerary from Aug. 5-15, 2023, if you have the time and want to see more of the country, including some stops in southern Brazil.
• 5-Day Itinerary: The shorter 5-day itinerary from Aug. 5-9, 2023, is available if your calendar cannot accommodate a 10-day trip.

Some of the tour participants will have an opportunity to be on a panel for the ANDAV Congress and share insights and opinions with our peers in South America’s largest economy. Please register by April 5, 2023, to get your seat. To learn more, click on the link.
