Trade between Jordan and Qatar increased by 6 percent year on year in 2024 amid growing economic ties.

The total volume reached QR910 million ($250 million), up from QR860 million in 2023, the state-run Petra news agency reported, citing data released by Qatar’s planning and statistics authority.

Jordan’s exports to the Gulf state include consumer and food products, such as fresh and processed foods, vegetables, fruits, meats, dairy products, grains, coffee and other goods.

Qatar’s exports to Jordan were led by chemicals and industrial products, including motor oils, sulphuric acid, paraffin, polyethylene, chemical and organic fertilisers, and medical solutions.

The trade growth has been primarily driven by rising Qatari imports of Jordanian food and consumer goods, with a substantial rise in demand for vegetables and fruits since 2020.

Trade volume between the two countries surpassed QR11.5 billion over the past decade, official data showed.
