International trade agreements which Egypt has signed
Egypt occupies a central position between the circles of supply and between the regions of production and consumption, and between continents and the oceans, and has one of the most important navigation arteries in the world.
Egypt’s policy is to position itself as a global hub for regional services, production and re-export; creating jobs and economic growth by opening new markets for Egyptian products while simultaneously attracting Foreign Direct Investment from corporations looking to harness Egypt’s unique basket of preferential trade agreements, highly competitive and talented labor force and utility costs, as well as proximity to key global markets. Together, these advantages make Egypt an ideal hub from which to export to the rest of the world.
The trade agreements Egypt has signed give women in business the ability to export their products to all Arab countries (free trade exchange among Arab countries), COMESA countries and the EU agreement which creates a free trade area between the EU and Egypt by removing tariffs on industrial products and making agricultural products easier to trade.
