RIYADH: The Saudi Export Development Authority held a trade mission to Syria on Dec. 1, with the participation of more than 65 national companies from the goods, services, and export and re-export house sectors.
The two-day mission in Damascus features representatives from several government entities, including the Ministry of Investment, the Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization, the Saudi Food and Drug Authority, and the Saudi Export-Import Bank.
On the Syrian side, its Ministry of Economy is also participating, along with several supporting entities, most notably the Saudi French Bank and Al Baraka Bank Syria.
This reflects Saudi Exports’ commitment to expanding trade opportunities for national companies by opening direct communication channels with regional markets and enabling exporters to build effective partnerships that support the growth of non-oil exports.
The Saudi-Syrian trade mission includes intensive bilateral business meetings between participating companies and their counterparts in the Syrian market.
