The report, however, noted that the Kingdom’s overall merchandise exports fell 25.3 percent year-on-year in March, as the value of exports amounted to SR142 million in the same month of 2022.
GASTAT, in its report, pointed out that this year-on-year fall in exports was primarily driven by a decrease in oil exports which fell by 26.5 percent in March to SR83.1 billion.
