Ammon News - Jordan Exporters Association (JEA), in cooperation with Georgian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI), are scheduled to send an economic mission to Georgia during next March, aimed to strengthening economic and trade relations between the two countries.

JEA head, Ahmed Khudari, in a statement on Saturday, said the visit also comes in cooperation with Georgian Embassy in Jordan, aimed to enabling Jordanian companies to learn about Georgia's " important" market, open new export markets, and promote investment opportunities and priviliges available in the Kingdom.

During the economic delegation's visit, he said Jordanian companies are scheduled to hold bilateral meetings with Georgian private sector and set requirements for entering Georgia's "vital and important" market and opportunities available for the Kingdom's exports.

The visit also includes talks with Georgia's government institutions to discuss prospects for economic cooperation and opportunities to increase trade and investment exchange between the two countries, he pointed out.

In addition, Khudari stressed the importance of industrial exports in stimulating national economy by increasing production, expanding existing investments, creating more job opportunities, and strengthening the Kingdom's reserves of foreign currencies.

For his part, the JEA general manager, Halim Abu Rahma, said Georgia's market is deemed a "promising" export opportunity for Jordanian industrial products, especially plastic industries, foodstuffs, fertilizers, clothing and furniture, in addition to making it a gateway for neighboring markets.

Abu Rahma noted the visit comes within JEA's plans and programs to build trade relations with various countries and open new markets for national exports.
