So far, more than 140 exhibition pavilions from 12 countries [including Iran, Germany, Italy, France, the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland, China, Taiwan, Japan, Czech Republic and Russia] have expressed their readiness to take part in this edition of exhibition.

Accordingly, European Union Commission (EC) will visit the exhibition in Tehran to follow up trade and economic ties. In addition, Bulgarian ambassador to Iran and EU president will also attend the inaugural ceremony of the exhibition at the head of a high-raking trade and economic delegation.
For his part, Deputy Minister of Industry, Mine and Trade Sadegh Najafi said, “establishing trade-economic ties between Iranian entrepreneurs and producers continually and their foreign counterparts is one of the main objectives behind organizing this exhibition.”
Following the US pullout from JCPOA, most European countries are interested in maintaining their amicable relationship with the Islamic Republic of Iran in all fields, he emphasized.
