Sharif Chacoff, ProChile’s Trade Commissioner in the UAE, is a key figure in strengthening trade and investment relations between Chile and the Gulf countries. With a background in promoting Chilean goods and services globally, Sharif has played a pivotal role in enhancing the economic ties between these regions. Despite the geographic distance, Chile maintains a robust trade relationship with the UAE, exporting goods worth over $165 million in 2023.

He has been instrumental in facilitating key sectors such as metals, chemicals, food, and forestry, which constitute a significant portion of Chilean exports to the GCC.
Through his efforts, initiatives like Gulfood and Expo Dubai 2020 have provided platforms for Chilean businesses to showcase their products, resulting in substantial business opportunities and investments. Sharif’s focus on promoting Chilean tech and service sectors further emphasizes the growing potential for collaboration between Chile and the Gulf countries.
