Russia exported more than 24 tonnes of dried fish to Brazil totaling nearly US$400,000 in 10M 2025, according to the Russian Agriculture Ministry’s Agroexport Center. Most of the shipments were cod. Russia did not previously supply dried fish to the Brazilian market, the center said, noting that “Brazilians now have an excellent snack to go with beer while watching football matches.”
Russia also resumed shipments of vodka to the country in October after a break since December 2024. Russia exported alcoholic beverages, including vodka, at nearly 50 tonnes totaling over US$125,000 in value that month alone, suggesting the Brazilian market for Russian alcoholic drinks may hold some significance.
Russia exported over US$4 million worth of agricultural products to Brazil from January to October 2025, including wheat gluten, potato flakes and granules, flour confectionery products, active yeast, and others, suggesting agricultural exports are worth about US$5 million for the year and indicative of substantial room for growth. Many of these products are traditionally imported to Brazil from Europe, as Brazil does not have its own wheat or starch processing plants. Russian producers are now looking to compete with European producers, which tend to be more expensive.
