In line with national efforts to enhance industrial investment and leverage Jordan’s strategic position as a re-export hub to regional and global markets, and in light of the positive developments of the Jordanian Risha Gas Project—located near the Iraqi border and Jordanian border crossings and approximately 30 kilometers from Al-Karameh Free Zone—the Jordan Free and Development Zones Group announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) as a preliminary step toward concluding a lease agreement with Nitrogen Jordan for Fertilizers.

Under the MoU, an area of approximately 2,000 dunums will be allocated within Al-Karameh Free Zone for the establishment of an ammonia production plant. The project represents a qualitative addition to energy- and gas-related manufacturing industries and will enhance industrial value chains in the Kingdom.
The Jordan Free and Development Zones Group affirmed that it has provided all possible facilities and procedures to enable the investor to proceed with establishment and implementation, reflecting its commitment to attracting high value-added investments and maximizing the economic and developmental impact of major industrial projects—particularly those linked to national resources and Jordan’s strategic location.
This project aligns with the Group’s vision to transform Al-Karameh Free Zone into an advanced, export-oriented industrial hub, contributing to job creation and supporting sustainable economic growth.
