Iran Exports $50 Million of Handwoven Carpets in One Year: Official
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The CEO of the National Union of Handwoven Carpet Cooperatives of Iran said $50 million of the handwoven carpets were exported from the country in the last Iranian calendar year (March 21, 2023 to March 19, 2024).
Highlighting the significance of organizing the Handwoven Carpet Exhibition, Abdollah Bahrami said the issue of organizing the exhibition and participation of foreign delegations is of paramount importance, because introducing, supplying, selling and marketing handwoven carpets would be very effective.
Back on August 22, 2023, the head of the Iran National Carpet Center (INCC) said the government has eased its rules on exports of handwoven carpets amid efforts to generate more hard currency revenues from the sector.
The 16th International Carpet Expo 2024 is slated to be held from November 13 to 16, 2024 at the Tehran Permanent International Fairgrounds.
It is one of the most important international events in the field of carpets, moquettes, and related industries in Iran.
This exhibition’s objective is to provide the participants and exhibitors with information on the latest developments of Iran’s carpet and moquette producers and provide a chance for business relationships between domestic and international businesses and market players.
