Iran's chamber of commerce will be in charge of exporting national day ceremonies next year, the Iranian minister of industry, mining and trade said, stressing that the government's policy was to focus on organizations.

Reza Rahmani told reporters today (Monday) at the National Export Day ceremony held at the Summit that the national export day was slightly delayed this year, although it did not make any difference in its nature. .

He explained the reasons for the delay: Firstly, the national export day coincided with the last decade of the month of zero; secondly, months before I announced to the WTO, the chamber of commerce should be the custodian of the national export day. That was not taken seriously at the time, and today I wish it had not been 100 percent.

The Minister of Industry noted: "The policy of the government is to keep the organizations focused, and I said that I would not give speeches in this program because one of the ways to overcome the sanctions is the presence of people and economic activists.

The Minister of Industry told the Chairman of the Iranian Chamber of Commerce that the National Export Day will be held by the Iranian Chamber of Commerce next year and the Ministry of Industry will support it.

Rahmani added: Forty-four pens are produced daily, as well as one hundred daily consumer goods at the market level. In the past seven months, the forty-four items of manufactured goods, except for the automotive and aluminum family groups, have seen an upward trend. The auto, pickup and Nissan group has seen positive growth.

He said the production process is on the rise, but there is still empty capacity in the sector, and lack of access to finance and liquidity is the most important reason for the lack of capacity of production units to be activated.

The Minister of Industry told economic activists present at the event: "Prior to the exchange rate jump, there was no infrastructure to boost exports, and we need to strengthen these infrastructure as quickly as possible."

Rahmani emphasized that there are no legal barriers to export. He added that export development is one of the seven axes of the ministry's agenda, including export to neighboring countries.
