Saudi Arabia: Exporter Guide Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   SA2024-0007
Saudi Arabia is a major market ($1.55 billion) for U.S. food and agricultural products, and there are plenty of opportunities to export a wide range of new-to-market U.S. food products. Unfortunately, there are also significant impediments to trade including burdensome export facility registration requirements along with numerous halal related restrictions on meat and poultry. Despite these issues, U.S. food products are well-positioned to meet Saudi Arabia’s changing dietary habits and food security needs over the next several years.
