 AMMAN — A Jordanian economic delegation on Saturday began a tour to a number of African countries to explore the available opportunities for Jordanian exports to those countries, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported. 

The tour also aims to promote the investment and trade opportunities available in the Kingdom. 

The visit, which was organised by the Jordan Investment Commission and Jordan Chamber of Industry, will include Tanzania, Kenya, and Ethiopia, where the delegation is scheduled to attend business forums and hold meetings with officials and organise meetings for Jordanian companies to sign memoranda of understanding with the private sector leaders in these countries, according to Petra. 

Emerging African markets have become a target for Jordanian exporters after regional turbulence has led to the closure of vital markets in the neighbourhood.
