Strawberry Exports From Egypt Reach USD 74 Million In Q1 2025

Egypt’s strawberry exports reached USD 74.4 million in the first quarter of 2025, marking an increase of over USD 9 million compared to the same period in 2024. The total stood at USD 65.3 million during Q1 last year, according to the Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statistics.

Strawberries were among the most prominent agricultural goods exported by Egypt, contributing to the country’s overall Q1 agricultural export value of around USD 1.27 billion. That figure was slightly down from USD 1.3 billion in the first quarter of 2024. This growth in strawberry exports follows a strong year for Egypt in international markets.

The country recently announced plans to export strawberry seedlings to Brazil and set a new record in Malaysia, with exports reaching 1,500 tons during this marketing year. Egypt’s total national exports also grew sharply in March, recording USD 4.6 billion compared to USD 3.8 billion in March 2024, reflecting a rise of nearly USD 793 million year-on-year.
