Egypt food exports, 5–11 September 2026
Shipment quantities in the National Food Safety Authority’s weekly report.
Reported totals for 5–11 September are transcribed from NFSA’s 13 September release. Vegetables and fruit are subsets of total food exports; the three quantities must not be added. Consignments are distinct from companies or destination countries. This compilation covers a single week with the exact start and end dates retained. No annual extrapolation is made.
Insee says the economic profitability rate of agro-food wholesalers increased from 9.1% in 2020 to 10.7% in 2024. Sales volumes were weaker over the same period.
