Iran ready to invest in Afghanistan
TEHRAN, Feb. 22 (MNA) – Iran is ready to invest in different economic sectors in Afghanistan including cement, steel, car manufacturing, banking, food industries, mines, oil and gas, and chemical industries, the Managing Director of Iran Foreign Investment Company (IFIC) said.
Mehdi Razavi made the remarks during his meeting with Afghanistan Investment Support Agency (AISA) Director Nurollah Delawari here on Sunday.
Delawari, for his part, also described Afghanistan as a fine market for Iranian investors.
“Despite unrests, some $8 billion have been invested in Afghanistan during the past 8 years,” he said.
Referring to the Afghanistan yearly imports of over $5 billion worth of goods, Delawari said, “With the help of Iranian investors some half of these goods could be produced domestically.”
“We welcome Iranians to invest in the fields of electricity, cement, construction stones, and metal industries,” he added.
