The mentioned units have created jobs for 17,727 persons, the official stated.
Moghimi has said that 897 idle industrial units have been revived in the country’s industrial parks and zones since the beginning of the present year.
The mentioned units returning to the production cycle have created jobs for about 36,000 persons, he stated.
Over the past few years, many of the production units across Iran have been wrestling with financial issues as well as the problem of supplying their raw materials, so that, many have been forced to shut down or decrease their activities.
The Industry Ministry’s program for revving such units has tried to identify major problems and issues that the production units are facing in order to bring them back into the production cycle by resolving such problems.
In September, Industry, Mining, and Trade Minister Abbas Ali-Abadi inaugurated 20 industrial, infrastructure, and development projects valued at 294.8 trillion rials (over $60 million) in industrial parks and zones across the country through video conferencing.
The inauguration ceremony was also attended by Farshad Moghimi.
