SUMMARY:Webinar: Expand Your Middle East Market from Aqaba\, Jordan
DESCRIPTION:28 June\, 2021 at 9 AM (EDT) \nCABC\, in cooperation with the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service in Jordan\, hosted a special webinar with presentations highlighting the advantage of using Aqaba Special Economic Zone as a hub for Canadian Middle-East strategy. \nJordan is the only Arab country with which Canada has a free trade agreement since 2012 and therefore Canadian companies could benefit from the location\, the costs and the number of agreements that Jordan has developed with its neighbors to facilitate trade and movement of goods. \nAqaba offers a port\, an airport\, and a multitude of infrastructure for storing\, packaging\, labelling and then shipping by ground\, sea or by Air\, to other potential markets such as Iraq\, Syria\, Saudi Arabia\, etc. Starting January 2020\, Aqaba became more attractive for Canadian businesses following the establishment of the direct shipping link between eastern Canada ports and the port of Aqaba. \nSpeakers:\nH.E. Donica Pottie – Ambassador of Canada to Jordan\nH.E. Majed Alqatarneh – Ambassador of Jordan to Canada\nH.E. Eng.
