ATLANTA – Gov. Brian Kemp will lead a trade mission to Brazil and Argentina this week.

The governor and First Lady Marty Kemp will join representatives from the state departments of Economic Development and Agriculture and the Georgia Ports Authority in meeting with executives from companies already operating in Georgia or building new projects here.

Last year, Georgia exports to Brazil totaled $748 million, with another $120 million in exports going to Argentina.

“We’re always eager to grow those pipelines of opportunity so more Georgians from all parts of the state can benefit,” Kemp said Monday.

“I look forward to working with our partners in Brazil and Argentina to continue to build upon our already strong relationship,” Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture Tyler Harper added.
