Global Markets
Supplying International Buyers Across Six Continents
ValleyPick exports Egyptian fresh and frozen produce to importers, wholesalers, and supermarket chains across Europe, the GCC, the United Kingdom, North America, Asia, and Africa.
Egypt's Position in Global Produce Trade
Egypt is one of the world's leading exporters of fresh strawberries, with a well-established export programme serving buyers across Europe and the Middle East. The country's agricultural calendar, climate conditions, and proximity to key markets make it a competitive sourcing origin for international buyers.
ValleyPick works with buyers across multiple destination markets, providing fresh and frozen Egyptian produce with the documentation, packaging, and commercial flexibility required for each market.

Short Transit. Strong Demand.
Egypt's proximity to GCC markets means shorter transit times and fresher produce on arrival — a competitive advantage for time-sensitive fresh fruit shipments.
Import Regulations — Buyer Responsibility
Import regulations, phytosanitary requirements, Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs), and customs procedures vary by destination country and are subject to change. ValleyPick provides standard export documentation for all shipments. However, buyers are responsible for confirming the current import requirements for their specific destination market before placing orders. ValleyPick does not accept liability for shipments that are delayed, rejected, or destroyed due to import compliance issues in the buyer's destination market.
