Egypt: Food Processing Ingredients
Link to report:
Egypt imported some $6.3 billion worth of food ingredients in 2019, up about $100 million compared to imports in 2018. The United States is Egypt’s 14th largest supplier with $166 million in food ingredients shipments, accounting for about three percent of total market share. U.S.-origin food ingredients face competition from European, Middle Eastern, and increasingly African-origin exports. Egypt prioritizes food ingredient imports, as well as products requiring further processing; these benefit from low to no tariff duties compared to finished products.
