The head of the Jordan and Amman Chambers of Industry, Fathi Jaghbir, held a meeting with the Ambassador of the Republic of Yemen to Jordan, Jalal Faqirah, aiming to strengthen economic ties between the two nations. Jaghbir emphasized Jordan's appeal for foreign investments, citing its strategic location and free trade agreements that facilitate access to international markets. Proposed initiatives included organizing a workshop to showcase Jordanian investment opportunities and hosting a Jordanian-Yemeni economic forum. While economic relations are currently modest, with Jordanian exports to Yemen totaling $112.5 million in 2023 compared to imports of $200,000, both parties expressed optimism for future growth, citing mutual interest and cultural affinities. Key Jordanian exports to Yemen include medicines, medical supplies, fertilizers, food products, paints, soap, laundry preparations, and chemical products, while major imports from Yemen consist of coffee, tea, and honey, he added.
