ACC head meets Egyptian trade minister over increasing trade cooperation
President of the Amman Chamber of Commerce (ACC), President of the Foodstuff Traders Association (FTA) Khalil Haj Tawfiq, discussed with Egyptian Minister of Trade and Industry, Dr. Nevin Jameh in Cairo, mechanisms to enhance Jordanian-Egyptian trade exchange and the role of private sector institutions in this regard.
According to an ACC statement on Saturday, some obstacles facing the flow of goods between the two countries were discussed, especially in terms of the Kingdom's exports, in addition to the possibility of launching an exhibition of Egyptian industries in Jordan and intensifying visits of trade delegations.
Haj Tawfiq said Jordanian-Egyptian relations are 'distinguished' in various fields, thanks to the 'remarkable' support of the two countries' leaderships, which necessitates the private sector to invest this situation to establish economic alliances that also include Iraq, which will serve common interests and achieve Arab economic integration.
During the meeting, he said many challenges are facing Jordanian-Egyptian trade exchange, most administrative, which can be overcome, adding that removing obstacles will contribute to increasing the volume of trade exchange.
The next stage, he hoped, will witness a new breakthrough in the form of the joint economic and trade relations, in addition to strengthening joint cooperation, expanding investments and addressing any difficulties and obstacles that prevent its development.
The Kingdom's exports to Egypt during the last 11 months of 2021 amounted to about $151 million, compared to $482 million in imports.
