Amman, July 26 (QNA) - Jordan's industrial exports grew by 8.2 percent during the first five months of 2026, reaching JD 3.668 billion compared with JD 3.392 billion during the same period last year, according to figures released Sunday by the Jordan Chamber of Industry.

The Chamber said the JD 277 million increase reflects the sector's continued resilience and growing competitiveness despite regional and global economic challenges, supported by market diversification and higher-value industrial products.

It added that the growth was driven by higher exports of key industrial products, including raw potash, fertilisers, iron and steel products, organic chemicals, copper, aluminum, cement and other manufactured goods. (QNA)
