Abstract

The foreign trade sector in general and the agricultural sector in particular is one of the mainstays of economic activity in Egypt. Egypt is closely linked to the African continent with historical, economic, cultural and geographical ties. The total exports to Africa is about 4.4million, and the total value of imports from Africa is about 2.1 million, during the average period (2017-2019). The research problem is the weak value of trade exchange between Egypt and the countries of the African continent. The results of the research indicated that most of the promising Egyptian agricultural and food commodities exported to Africa enjoy promising future opportunities in the markets of African countries in different regions, which indicates the importance the promising Egyptian agricultural and food exports to these markets .The absence of promising future export opportunities for cheese and its manufactured products exported by Egypt from the markets of the countries of the Central African region in order to increase the intensity of competition in these markets,  And then focus on other markets in the African continent, such as the markets of the Arab African countries, and the existence of promising future prospects for the Egyptian food industries in penetrating African markets And that the best agricultural and food commodities in achieving promising future opportunities are vegetables preserved in West African markets (especially in the Nigerian market), Arab markets (especially Libya), and then processed products from cheese.
