Ramadan is incomplete without dates, with Saudi Arabia being the largest exporter and Israel in second place, making significant contributions with over US$317 million in 2021. The main buyers include Europe and America, led by France, Italy, Britain, and the United States. Despite a global trade value drop in 2020, Israel remained a top exporter, supported by continued supply to major importers like Germany and the Netherlands, which are now being joined by Spain and other countries.
