Real import growth rate in Egypt 2019-2021
As of 2020, the real import growth rate was expected to decline by a significant 20.6 percent in Egypt. Nevertheless, the real import was projected to increase again in 2021 by 22.2 percent, while in 2019 a rise of four percent in imports was visible. The drop in 2020 can be related to the shock to the economy caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
