hit 6.3 dlrs billion by end of November
The Egyptian Food Export Council said the country's food industry sector achieved a new record during the first eleven months of 2025 with exports surpassing $6.339 billion compared to approximately $5.632 billion during the same period in 2024, marking a 13% growth.
The council said this exceptional performance reflects the growing importance of the food industry as one of the key drivers of growth in Egypt’s non-petroleum exports.
Food exports account for around 14% of total non-petroleum exports and rank third among the country’s main export sectors.
The council also emphasized the steady monthly performance throughout 2025, showing clear dynamics and a balanced distribution of exports across the year.
Exports began strongly in January, reaching $530 million, up from $479 million in January 2024, representing an 11% growth and an increase of $51 million.
In February, exports slightly declined to $532 million, compared to $543 million in the same month of the previous year, a 2% decrease. March followed a similar pattern, recording $578 million in exports, down 2% from $592 million.
