Iran’s Carpet to Reclaim Position in US Market: Report
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran’s hand-woven carpets are expected to reclaim their market share across the US through renewed exports once sanctions against the Islamic Republic are lifted, a report said.
“Iran’s famed carpet weavers are busy at work following the country’s historic nuclear deal with world powers, anticipating a boost in exports as sanctions are set to be lifted in the months ahead,” this is according to a report published by AP.
“The Persian hand-woven carpet is Iran’s ambassador. I’m delighted that the ambassador is in the process of resuming work in the US,” AP quoted Iranian exporter Jila Rassam Arabzadeh as saying.
According to the report, “Persian carpets were the Iranian non-oil commodity that suffered most as a result of sanctions”.
Iran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany) on July 14 reached a conclusion over the text of a comprehensive 159-page deal on Tehran's nuclear program.
The comprehensive nuclear deal between Iran and the six powers would terminate all nuclear-related sanctions imposed on Iran after coming into force.
Experts believe that Iran's economic growth would rise remarkably after the final nuclear deal takes effect.
