Egyptian company Abd El Wahab Sons has an ambitious plan to reach 45,000 tonnes this year, up from 25,000 tonnes last year which would mark a total increase of 80%.
The chairperson of the company, Khalid Abdelwahab, said that the company will sign more deals with farmers to stimulate exports, next to cultivating 1,000 feddans owned by the company.
The company exports products such as lemons, oranges, onions, melons, grapes, pomegranates, green beans, and colored peppers to over 10 markets. Abdelwahab noted that Egyptian citrus fruits, especially oranges, have good market shares in Russia, Ukraine, and Iran, as well as east Asian countries, hence the company aims to boost its exports to these markets.
