Egypt "World's Leading Exporter" of Frozen Strawberries
Taarek Refaat Egypt has firmly secured its position as the world's leading exporter of frozen strawberries for the second consecutive year, shipping over 353,000 metric tons in 2024 and generating $383 million in export revenue, according to the Export Council for Food Industries. The country captured an impressive 27% share of the global market, topping more than 100 international destinations, reflecting Egypt's rising prominence in global agri-food supply chains and the enduring trust in the quality, safety, and competitiveness of its produce. Double-Digit Growth in Demand and Revenue Egypt's frozen strawberry exports have grown at an average annual rate of 26% in value and 24% in volume from 2020 to 2024. The most recent export cycle (2023–2024) witnessed a 14% year-on-year increase in export value, signaling a sharp uptick in global demand for the Egyptian product. 'This sustained growth is no accident—it's the result of a coordinated effort between public and private stakeholders to enhance product quality and meet stringent international food safety standards,' the Council said in a statement. Top Markets: China Leads the Way The five largest importers of Egyptian frozen strawberries in 2024 were: China – $41.9 million (11% of Egypt's total exports) Germany – $41.8 million Russia – $31.1 million United States – $30.9 million Poland – $30.5 million Together, these five markets accounted for 46% of Egypt's total frozen strawberry exports, highlighting the product's appeal across Asia, Europe, and North America. A Case Study in Agro-Export Success Industry experts say Egypt's dominance in the frozen strawberry market reflects several strategic advantages: A long harvest season enabling extended processing windows Competitive labor and logistics costs Government support for export certification, traceability, and food safety systems Modern cold chain infrastructure and packing facilities The Export Council emphasized that Egypt's success in this category should be leveraged to expand into new markets, particularly in Asia and Latin America, while also investing in value-added agricultural processing and product diversification. 'There is a real opportunity to build on this momentum,' the Council stated. 'We must continue enhancing Egypt's global export brand by adding more processed food lines, penetrating emerging markets, and increasing market share in strategic regions.' Global Recognition and National Impact Frozen strawberries are now among Egypt's top-performing agricultural exports, contributing significantly to foreign exchange earnings and employment in the Delta region, where much of the strawberry cultivation and processing is based. Economic analysts see the sector as a blueprint for how Egypt can scale agricultural exports, attract foreign investment, and improve rural development—all while gaining soft power through trusted food products. With global demand for affordable, high-quality frozen fruit rising, Egypt's strawberry industry appears well-positioned for sustained growth in the years ahead. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Arts & Culture Hawass Foundation Launches 1st Course to Teach Ancient Egyptian Language Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream
