Iran’s export of handwoven carpets in this period registered a six percent growth compared to the last year’s corresponding period, Mohammadreza Zare Borzeshi stated.
Turning to the growing trend of producing handwoven carpets in the country over the past three years, he pointed out that handwoven carpet production indicated an 11 percent growth in the previous Iranian calendar year (March 21, 2023, to March 20, 2024).
According to the statistics of the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration (IRICA), Iran exported $11.5 million in handwoven carpets in the first four months of the previous Iranian calendar year (March 21 to July 22, 2023).
Given the measures taken in the field of handwoven carpets, the production growth in tandem with the exports can play an important role in the generation of employment opportunities and yielding foreign currency for the country, Mohammadreza Zare Borzeshi added.
