agreements it has signed. At Socotra Bio Inc. organisation and trade compliance is the responsibility of
our export/import managers. Socotra Bio Inc. managers ensure that they and other organisation

What is special about Yemen honey?
Yemen has long been renowned for producing some of the best honey in the world, often compared to Mānuka honey from New Zealand. Some of the highest quality, and purest, comes from bees fed exclusively on the flowers of the sidr, producing a pale-colored honey with a fiery, almost bitter aftertaste.
Yemen Frankincense
Arid conditions in Yemen produce some of the finest frankincense in the world! Used throughout the ages to enhance spirituality, mental perception, meditation, prayer and consciousness, frankincense soothes the spirit as it slows and deepens breathing. Today 90 per cent of the world’s production of frankincense comes from the Horn of African— predominantly from the border communities on the Somalia-Ethiopia border. It is essential to Somalia’s economy and many vulnerable families rely on it to earn an income. Ethiopia is believed to have the largest livestock population in Africa. Livestock subsector makes the major contribution to the overall economy. The livestock production system in Ethiopia is traditional and contributes to both subsistence and cash generation. Hide is the raw skin of mature animals of larger kinds, example cattle, horse, and also other large animals. To improve the hide and skin sector situation in Ethiopia, training needs to be provided for producers and collectors, collection and marketing of hide and skin should be done immediately after slaughtering, and household, government, and national and international organizations need to work together.

As it’s thought that coffee originated in Ethiopia, it’s also believed it made its way north, across the red sea
into Yemen in the 15th Century. It then started to be grown here in the Yemeni district of Arabia, and by the 16th
century it was known in Persia, Egypt, Syria, and Turkey.

What are the main crops grown in Ethiopia?
Ethiopia is known for growing a wide range of vegetables that include green beans, snow peas, broccoli,
asparagus, okra, cabbages, cauliflower, and eggplant among others. Principal crops include coffee, pulses (e.g.,
beans), oilseeds, cereals, potatoes, sugarcane, and vegetables. Exports are almost entirely agricultural
commodities, and coffee is the largest foreign exchange earner.
Oil Seeds
Ethiopia grows high-value oilseeds that are coveted around the world, and are in high demand. The seeds
produced in Ethiopia include sesame seeds, mustard, pumpkin, sunflower, rapeseed, castor seed, and
groundnuts.
Flowers
Flower cuttings have been in high demand in the world, and Ethiopia has been able to meet this opportunity
by growing the products individually for export in many parts. These range from ornamental foliage, bulbs,
roots and cut flowers.
Indonesia produces predominantly black tea, although a small amount of green tea is also grown. The finest
varieties are often compared to high-grown teas from Sri Lanka, and are produced almost entirely for export. Sumatra
Hand-Rolled is a rare and amazingly complex, completely hand-plucked and hand-processed tea from the
Indonesian island of Sumatra. Leaves of a Camellia sinensis cultivar that is typically used for the production of
Taiwanese wulongs is grown at an elevation of 3600 feet.
Traditionally important agricultural export commodities included sugar, cocoa and coffee. Other agricultural
products include coconuts, citrus fruits, rice, poultry and vegetables. The first variety of cacao was planted
in Trinidad by Spaniards in 1525 and was known as the Criollo. Trinidad and Tobago produce some of the
world’s highest-grade cocoa beans. “Trinit3v4ario is one of the most flavorsome cocoas you can get,”
Demerara sugar is produced from sugarcane and consists of large grains which provide a nice, crunchy
texture in baking. It originates from Guyana (formerly Demerara) in South America.
Health benefits of Demerara sugar
Demerara is a sugar, which means that it is a carbohydrate that can provide energy in short bursts. That is
its main health benefit. Like other brown sugars, it is sometimes marketed as being healthier than refined
white sugar. That is not really the case as it consists almost entirely of sucrose, much like white sugar. It
contains a small amount of natural molasses, which means that it also contains the minerals in the molasses
and its nutrients. It does contain very small amounts of certain minerals, but not enough to be of any real
benefit. This means that the nutrients in Demerara sugar will not play much of a role in helping to treat or
prevent any diseases or health conditions, aside from low blood sugar.
Turkey is one of the main pistachio nuts producing country in the world. Wild trees of Pistacia species
are spread in almost all parts of Anatolia. However, the majority of Pistacia trees are in the South Eastern

flavor from the great climate of the Mediterranean. In general, Turkey produces two types of pistachio nuts:

An export/import manager has to deal with several stakeholders such as customers, transport service
providers, government representatives and so on. Clear and concise communication is essential to avoid
any misunderstandings with these people. At Socotra Bio Inc. we always ensure that those we deal with
clearly understand what we mean and, most importantly, what those persons we are dealing with have to
say
Accountability refers to the act of taking responsibility or ownership for your work, while adaptability can be
defined as a person’s ability or willingness to change their way of thinking or established processes to suit
new or changed circumstances. Both these skills are essential for our export/import managers to possess,
and we ensure that they all work as a team to support each other in unexpected and trying circumstances
so that no one person has to take the full responsibility for handling a crisis. This is yet another facet that
makes Socotra Bio Inc. unique and your ideal first choice as an import/export value-added partner
At Socotra Bio Inc. our export and import managers often find themselves having to make quick decisions
under stressful circumstances. For example, if a shipment has been delayed, cargo has been damaged or
payments haven’t been released according to schedule, each of these creates a domino effect of issues
and problems that require urgent and effective attention. All this can lead to a huge amount of stress for us
and our customers, and also require quick decision-making about how to proceed in order to address and
rectify the situation. This is why the ability to take calm and measured decisions in the middle of a crisis is
such a valuable skill for our export/import managers to have.
