Exciting news for the trade relations between Iran and Uzbekistan! A Task Force for Monitoring Iran-Uzbekistan Trade Agreements is set to be established, signaling a new era of collaboration and growth between the two nations. Led by Sammad Hassanzadeh, a recent visit to Tashkent and the Khwarazm Province resulted in discussions with Uzbek officials on expanding trade opportunities.
The government’s support for joint trade and investment activities in Uzbekistan has paved the way for increased private sector involvement in both countries. Hamed Asgari, Deputy of International Affairs for the Iran Chamber, emphasized the importance of preparatory meetings for trade delegations, ensuring successful outcomes reflected in Iran’s trade balance.
The delegation also explored opportunities for Iranian companies to participate in technical and engineering service projects, with a special focus on joint project development in Tashkent. Challenges in Iran’s economy were addressed, with suggestions to form joint venture companies and focus on the transportation sector for improved access to the Uzbek market.
With plans to establish a task force to follow up on agreements made during the visit, the future looks promising for enhanced trade cooperation between Iran and Uzbekistan.
