Jordan's sole and the Arab world's only potash producer. Operates from Ghor Al Safi at the southern end of the Dead Sea — extracts potash through solar evaporation from Dead Sea brine. Produced 2.84M MT in 2024 (record). Revenue JD 651M; net profit JD 184M (2024). World's 8th largest potash producer by volume. Over 90% exported to 30+ countries. Contributes 8% of Jordan's total exports; $1.3B in foreign currency to Jordan's banking system annually. Dead Sea level declining due to water diversion and extraction — a long-term geological constraint on operations.
