A DESCRIPTIVE OVERVIEW OF THE IMPORT AND EXPORT ENVIRONMENT IN JORDAN
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
While thinking about Jordan what would be the first picture coming to your mind if ever you know where Jordan is: desert, sand, Bedouins, camels, perhaps a picture of Petra? Who would imagine that Jordan is one of the four world producers of potash and phosphate, the main and capital components of fertilizer and manure? Who would think that Jordan does not only export physical goods, Jordan “exports brains”, knowledge through the whole of the Middle East? What everybody knows is that Arabs for centuries are traders, from the time of caravan bringing spices from India and China to Europe to the oil exportation since the 20th century. Jordanians do not fail to the rule and love of trading.
