A successful visit to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, where Export Bahrain had several meetings with various stakeholders which resulted in the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Export Bahrain and the Jordan Enterprise Development Corporation.

The agreement, which seeks to encourage the development of commercial exchange and trade collaboration between the two nations, was signed by Ms. Safa Sharif Abdulkhaliq, Chief Executive Officer of Export Bahrain, and Mr. Abdel Fattah Kayed, Chief Executive Officer of Jordan Enterprise Development Corporation (JEDCO).

Under this agreement, Export Bahrain and JEDCO will be the facilitators for commercial and economic contracts, acting as the gateway between businesses in both Bahrain and Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, allowing for new international ventures to flourish through this cooperation in a prosperous and dynamic commercial environment.
