ALAE’s new president Luís Hasegawa said: “At the moment when ALAE reaches its 10th anniversary it’s a pleasure to register that we have reached our goal of having Allies on all Brazilian States. At the same time, with the association of our new Mexican Ally, we see our goal of being on all Latin American countries advancing a little bit more. On our next meeting on August 2014 we hope being able to announce new Allies in Peru and Ecuador, which we will start searching for in April. On the other hand, during my tenure I will also be focused on increasing businesses amongst the Allies, pursuing to overcome the R$4,2 million obtained in 2013”.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
