TEHRAN (Iran News) – Iranian province of Semnan exports, including 182,241 tons of commodities worth $170 million during the eight months to November 21, a senior official at the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration said.
“The figures indicate a 19% fall in terms of volume but a considerable increase of 62% in terms of Rial value, compared with the corresponding period of last year,” Semnan Customs Administration’s Director General Ali Sa’deddin said.
He added that forty-six countries were the destinations of Semnan exports during the period under review.
Lead ingot, sodium hydroxide, light hydrocarbon, and other metal products, as well as plastic, wires, and cables, were the main commodities exported from Semnan in the eight months period, Sa’deddin said.
In spite of US sanctions imposed against the Islamic Republic of Iran, export of non-oil products from Customs Office of Pars Energy Special Economic Zone is on the verge of growth in a way that more than $500 million worth of non-oil products were exported from the country in Iranian month of Aban (Oct. 21 – Nov. 22), showing a 39 and five percent growth in terms of weight and value respectively.
Although many restrictions were imposed against the Islamic Republic of Iran in the field of shipping, insurance of vessels and oil tankers, all these cases could not prevent the growth of non-oil exports especially petrochemical products.
