Grapes rank 4th in Egyptian agricultural exports with approx. 180K tons

CAIRO - 15 August 2026: Grapes ranked fourth among Egypt's most important agricultural exports, with total quantities reaching approximately 180,000 tons.

 

This demonstrates the continued strong presence of grapes among Egyptian agricultural products destined for foreign markets, benefiting from the increasing demand for Egyptian agricultural products in several international markets.

 

Grapes are among a group of agricultural crops that constitute a significant portion of Egyptian exports, driven by the expansion of new markets for agricultural products.

 

This is further supported by the government's efforts to improve the agricultural quarantine system and implement the necessary requirements and standards to ensure the quality and safety of exported products.

 

 

Exported Grape Quantities

 

The exported quantities of grapes reflect the importance of this crop within the Egyptian agricultural export system, especially given Egypt's comparative advantage in its production, the diversity of varieties, and the varying harvest times, which allow for access to foreign markets throughout different periods of the year.

 

Agricultural authorities are working to support the export system by tightening controls on crops destined for export and ensuring their compliance with the technical and health requirements of importing countries.

 

This contributes to maintaining the reputation of Egyptian agricultural products and enhancing their competitiveness in global markets.

 

The agricultural export sector aims to continue achieving high growth rates by increasing the volume of exported products and opening new markets, in addition to expanding exports of value-added products.

 

This will support the state's revenues from the agricultural sector and strengthen its contribution to the national economy.

 

The fact that grapes topped the list of exported crops, with quantities approaching 180,000 tons, confirms the continued diversification of Egypt's agricultural exports, which are not limited to a single crop.

 

This enhances the sector's opportunities to access new markets and increase its global competitiveness.
