Riyadh: Jordanian companies specializing in food manufacturing are scheduled to begin their participation in the Saudi Food Manufacturing 2025, set to kick off tomorrow in the Saudi capital, Riyadh. The Jordan Exporters Association (JEA) is organizing the Kingdom’s participation in the exhibition for the second time.
According to Jordan News Agency, the three-day event features over 550 international brands, with pavilions representing several countries, including France, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Turkey, India, Switzerland, Spain, Pakistan, Egypt, China, and Italy. In a statement, JEA Chairman Ahmed Khudari expressed that the goal of Jordanian industries’ presence at this event is to diversify and increase national exports and learn about the latest developments, technologies, and innovations in the food manufacturing industry.
Khudari noted that the participation comes within the framework of JEA’s efforts aimed at enabling national companies to promote their products and open new marketing horizons in foreign markets, especially amid international presence at this specialized event. This step, he added, represents an important opportunity for Jordanian companies to learn about developments in the sector, exchange expertise, explore opportunities for cooperation and partnerships, and possibly conclude commercial deals that enhance their international presence.
Khudari emphasized that the Saudi market is one of the most important markets for Jordanian industrial exports, given the two kingdoms’ strong relations at various levels, as well as their geographical proximity. He also highlighted that the Jordanian industry has achieved remarkable development in recent years in terms of quality and competitive pricing, enabling it to reach over 150 global markets.
Additionally, Khudari pointed out that the growth of industrial exports plays a pivotal role in driving the national economy and achieving desired growth rates, as well as creating more job opportunities, attracting new investments in the industrial sector, and supporting the Kingdom’s foreign currency reserves. He urged Jordanian companies operating in the food industry to seize the opportunity to attend the event to promote their products, especially amid the expected large turnout of exhibitors, brand owners, experts, and traders from across the world.
Khudari also highlighted JEA’s close cooperation and coordination with Jordan and Amman Chambers of Industry and Export House. This partnership aims to support the export industries sector and promote Jordanian products by enhancing their presence in specialized international exhibitions and facilitating their access to vital and strategic markets.
