| Sumario: | The problem of research is facing Egyptian exports of frozen vegetables in general, and the mixture of frozen vegetables in particular, with intense
competition in foreign markets, which requires
studying this problem and proposing appropriate
solutions to it. Therefore, the research aimed to
study means of developing and increasing agricultural exports of Egyptian frozen vegetables. The
research focused on the exports of the Egyptian
frozen vegetable mixture, as it was found that it
ranked first among the total Egyptian exports of
frozen vegetables during the period (2014-2018),
where it represented about 70.1% of the total
quantities.
The research has reached some conclusions,
including:
The time trend equations for the quantity, value
and price of Egyptian exports for both frozen vegetables and frozen vegetable mixtures were estimated during the period (2004-2018). It turned out
that the ratio of the increase to the average in both
the quantity and value of exports of frozen vegetables mixture is greater than that in the total frozen
vegetables. By studying the geographical distribution, the most important importing countries for the
Egyptian frozen vegetable mixture were identified
during the period (2014-2018), namely Saudi Arabia, America, France.
By studying the market share index of the most
important importing markets for frozen vegetables
mixture shows that Egypt occupies the first position
in the list of countries exporting frozen vegetables
mixtures in the Saudi market during the period
(2010-2012) with an amount of exports estimated
at about 4.9 thousand tons and a market share of
about 72.2%.
By studying The External of individual demand
for the Egyptian frozen vegetable mixture in the
Saudi market shows that an increase in the price
of Egypt by 1% leads to a decrease in Egypt's exports to Saudi Arabia by 0.89%. A 1% decrease in
India’s price leads to a decrease in Egypt’s exports
by 0.89, meaning that there is a significant impact
of price changes and that India is a competitor to
Egypt within the Saudi market.
The research recommended
1. Study the non-price competitive reasons, as
Egypt has a competitive price advantage, yet
its market share in the Saudi market is decreasing (it may be due to taste, packaging,
export facilities, etc.).
2. The competitive advantage between Egypt and
India is decreasing more than the other two
competing countries (Spain, Belgium).
3. Focus on studying the reasons for India's increasing competitiveness of Egyptian exports.
4. There is an effect of price competition, especially with Mexican and Chinese exports, and it
is recommended that this price competitive advantage be improved in favor of Egypt.
5. Italy is the largest competitor in the French
market (it has a significant price impact on
Egypt's exports, followed by Spain).
