The Egyptian onion season is starting with “a totally different ambiance from previous years”, according to Abdelkader Habony, an Egyptian exporter of various fresh produce. “We were used to strong demand even before the launch of our export campaign. This year, the Egyptian onions campaign is starting with a low demand,” he continues.

The exporter added: “It seems that the global shortage of onions is no longer persistent. Local production is more available in many of our usual markets, such as Africa and the Arab countries. Demand is low, if not non-existent, and we hope it will improve soon, in early March.”
