The Food Export Council aims to double the size of exports to the African markets in the coming period. He explained that the council aims to increase exports to Kenya by 15% per year until 2020. Nasr stressed that African markets need different products from Egypt, including juice concentrates, sauces, sweets, oils, snacks, and biscuits. She pointed out that the council also coordinates between Egyptian exporters and African importers to arrange two-way trips to split the cost between both parties. For instance, she said that Egyptian importers of tea from Kenya can benefit from using the same trucks that exported other Egyptian products to Kenya.
