The Jordan Garments, Accessories & Textiles Exporters’ Association (JGATE)

The Jordan Garments, Accessories & Textiles Exporters’ Association (JGATE) is a nonprofit organization and the only trade association in the country representing several garment & textile industries in Jordan.

Starting its journey in 2003, today JGATE takes advantage of the benefits offered under the Qualified Industrial Zone (QIZ) and the Jordan-US Free Trade Agreement. In terms of problem-solving and rewarding partnerships, JGATE tries to generate substantial leverage between its manufacturing members and governmental institutes.

Since its inception, JGATE has been dedicated to promoting and facilitating the apparel industry through policy advocacy to the government, services to members, and ensuring workers’ rights and social compliance at factories. JGATE presents the large exporting factories and some medium factories exporting to the international markets and collaborates with local and international stakeholders, including brands and development partners, to pave the way for the development of the Jordanian industry and to improve the exporting aspect of the garment and textile sector in the country.

Currently, JGATE has around 33 registered garment factories and is working to expand their connections.
As being the only association of a conglomeration of retailers and manufacturers, it serves as a single sourcing destination, thereby infusing efficiency of time and cost into the supply chain and enabling rapid growth of the overall market size.
