Why Egyptian Guava Works for the Jordanian Market
Guava is a popular fruit in Jordan, eaten fresh and widely juiced, and the country relies on imports for most of its supply. Egypt is the logical origin: a matching autumn-to-winter season, short logistics by Red Sea to Aqaba or overland via Nuweiba, and competitive pricing. Fruit lands quickly and in sound condition for Jordanian retail.
For Jordanian importers, Egyptian guava offers reliable seasonal supply, fast replenishment and the quality needed for both fresh sale and juicing.
