Israel: Israel May Seek New Sources for Agricultural Imports Due to Turkish Trade Ban

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   IS2024-0013
Türkiye, Israel’s third largest foreign supplier of imported agricultural and related products, recently announced a ban on all trade with Israel due to the regional conflict. Accordingly, Israeli importers may look to source certain agricultural imports from elsewhere. Israel’s leading agricultural and related imports from Turkey include fresh and processed agricultural produce—specifically tomatoes, olive oil, cucumbers, onions, and eggplant. For the United States, pistachios may be in greater demand as Türkiye is the only other foreign supplier to the Israeli market.
