The Association pointed out that this pioneering role came under the directives of His Majesty King Abdullah II and his continuous support to reach safe food and medicine, and his directives to support the pharmaceutical and food industries to reach self-sufficiency and achieve drug and food safety.

They pointed out that the Jordanian food and pharmaceutical products are exported to most countries of the world, which confirms their safety.
