The joint UAE-Jordan Business Council has underlined the need to utilize the momentum provided by Expo 2020 Dubai, official sources have said.

The two sides believe the momentum will apparently continue in the fields of agricultural and food trade, the pharmaceuticals and furniture industry, and the proliferation of fairs and exhibitions around the world.

This came as the council members convened their fourth meeting today at the premises of the Federation of UAE Chambers of Commerce & Industry in Dubai.

At the meeting, the two sides called for intensifying visits by trade delegations from both countries and increasing the number of conferences.

They also called for more workshops to highlight investment opportunities and incentives available in both countries.

The meeting was co-chaired by Hamid Mohamed bin Salem, Secretary-General of the Federation of UAE Chambers of Commerce & Industry, and Mohamed Al-Atoum, Board Member of the Jordan Chamber of Commerce.

It reportedly emphasized the privileged trade relations between the two nations and the necessity of taking advantage of the business opportunities up for grabs over the coming period.
