Between January 2021 and October 2021, Egypt’s mango and pomegranate exports amounted to a whopping EGP 1.5 billion in total. 

Pomegranate exports amounted to approximately EGP 898 million over this period, a modest 3.6% increase from last year’s total. Mangos, on the other hand, saw an increase of 20.3% compared to last year, with exports totaling to about EGP 867 million.
