JCC invites French firms to join Jordan-EU investment forum

Amman, Sept. 9 (Petra) – Jordan Chamber of Commerce (JCC) President
Khalil Haj Tawfiq called the upcoming Jordan-EU Investment Conference
a “primary driver” for turning foreign ties into real economic
projects on Wednesday.

Addressing the Franco-Arab Chamber of Commerce in Paris, Haj Tawfiq
said the JCC will mobilize its international network to secure
“major” European presence at the November 19 forum at the Dead Sea.

He invited the French business community to attend and explore
“major” national ventures tied to Jordan’s Economic Modernization
Vision.

He noted that key opportunities include the National Water Carrier
Project, national railway networks, the Amra City development,
alongside infrastructure, energy, logistics, tourism, and tech
sectors.

Beyond driving capital investment, these projects stimulate diverse
economic sectors, generate employment, and facilitate technology
transfer and establish “lasting alliances” between Jordanian and
European firms, enabling local project execution and regional
scaling, according to Haj Tawfiq.

He showcased Jordan’s “unique” value proposition, citing its regional
stability, talent pool, strategic trade positioning, and cultural
appeal.

“Hearing about Jordan from afar is nothing like experiencing it
firsthand,” he said, adding that: “Come discover a country that
bridges stability with promising opportunity.”

Beyond its domestic market, Jordan serves as a gateway to massive
global trade and regional reconstruction thanks to free trade deals
with the EU, US, UK, Canada, Singapore, and Arab states, Haj Tawfiq
added.

Franco-Arab Chamber board members warmly received the invitation,
praising Jordan’s stability and strategic positioning as a hub
connecting regional trade with international markets.
